It is a subject that helps students use systematic and methodical approaches to real life problems.  Mathematics is about reasoning and solving problems of chance, geometry, algebra and number.

By studying mathematics students will:

• apply Mathematical concepts to everyday problems
• develop ideas and approaches to simple and complex problems
• be able to prove and disprove assumptions in mathematical problems

Students in Year 10 have the opportunity to study Mathematics Core or Advanced Mathematics. Also in Year 10, students have the choice to study the elective Specialist Mathematics. While senior students are able to access Essential Mathematics, General Mathematics, Methods and Specialist Mathematics.
