What the college says
Mathematics is one of the most important areas of human development, forming the basis for logical thought and ensuring that everyday problems can be approached with confidence. Apart from the obvious use of counting the cans of baked beans when you are in your kitchen, or figuring out how far you can stretch your last £20, Mathematics is a skill which can be applied to so many areas. If you find Pi as easy as pie, and have contemplated studying Mathematics at a higher level, but still need a little more convincing, think about the following facts: it increases your employability, statistically you have a higher chance of starting on a higher salary and gives society one more person that could influence new technology or medicine. The Mathematics curriculum at the Hundred of Hoo Academy is one which prepares pupils for success at A Level and beyond; designed to support the development of fundamental and functional mathematical skills that not only prepares pupils for Higher Education courses, but also for adult life. The Mathematics Department firmly believes that every pupil will achieve to the best of their ability; every pupil will leave the Academy with the skills and attributes that will ensure they are successful as they move to the next stages of their Academic career or employment.
