CSEC Mathematics Year 1
Course Description
CSEC Mathematics students are taught to develop a holistic understanding of the subject, focusing on principles, patterns, systems, functions, and relationships. Students will become mathematically competent and fluent in computation, which they can apply to everyday situations.
‘Thinking and working mathematically’, a unique feature of Fitz Academy mathematics curriculum; we encourage students to communicate with others, challenge ideas and to provide evidence that validates conjectures and solutions and prepares them for the final year.
When students are thinking and working mathematically, they actively seek to make sense of ideas and build connections between different facts, procedures and concepts. We help learners get an opportunity to enhance their preparations (SBAs and the like) necessary for the final year.
