In Junior Mathematics, (Years 9 and 10) students are placed in classes that cover the appropriate curriculum level to ensure they are working with others who are at a similar stage in their mathematical journey. Most students enter the college between level 3 and 6 of the curriculum in Year 9. At Years 9 and 10 they study Number, Algebra, Measurement, Geometry, Graphs, Probability and Statistics. In Year 10 students sit the Common Assessment Activity for Numeracy. A small handful of students are accelerated to Year 11 course in Year 10.
In Senior Mathematics, students are guided by their teachers to choose the type of course that will allow them to pursue their interests and career aspirations. We offer courses that offer pathways to both Statistics and Calculus with Scholarship classes for our top-performing students. Many students are placed in extension or accelerated courses.
- Mathematics – general mathematics
- Calculus – the branch of mathematics which deals with rates of change
- Statistics – the branch of mathematics which deals with collecting and interpreting data
