Mathematics at Holyport College

As the world’s dependence on technology has increased, so has the demand for the people that can think mathematically. The truth is maths is all around us. As a matter of fact, some call it an inescapable quotient that we simply just can not get through life without. It is therefore fundamentally important to ensure that all students have the best possible mathematics education.

Through Mathematics students learn about the inherent principle of logic and order. They have to indulge in a coherent process of learning about problems, formulas and how to use a sequence of steps to reach a solution that in turn helps them develop discipline of mind, resilience and independence, all of which they can use in other areas of their lives. Students need to understand the mathematics they learn so they can be creative in solving problems, as well as being confident and fluent in developing and using the mathematical skills so valued in the world of industry and higher education.
