You are here: Curriculum > Numeracy and Mathematics
Children are given a great deal of active learning to help them to develop and master concepts in numeracy and mathematics. Where possible a real life approach is used and often children are given application of their learning through real life contexts. Problem solving skills are developed from Primary 1. The school does not depend on a particular maths resource as we tailor what we are doing to the children in the class. Resources include the use of practical materials, ICT and teacher made activities. There are several areas which are covered in numeracy and mathematics:
- Problem Solving and Enquiry
- Information Handling
- Number, Money and Measurement
- Shape, Position and Movement
We hold a financial education week in the school which helps children to focus on essential skills for life.
