Secondary Mathematics

Key Learning Objectives

Our Cambridge Lower Secondary Mathematics Curriculum enables students to develop a strong conceptual understanding of mathematical principles, strengthening their ability to think and work mathematically. Through this approach, students actively explore connections between different mathematical ideas, challenge concepts, and validate solutions with evidence.

Students will develop essential mathematical and problem-solving skills, including:

• Mastering numerical fluency and computation for real-world application.
• Understanding patterns, functions, and relationships in mathematics.
• Developing reasoning and problem-solving techniques for higher-order thinking.
• Applying mathematical skills to interpret data, analyse trends, and solve complex problems.
• Communicating and justifying mathematical ideas effectively.

Flexible Learning Models to Suit Every Student

At IWS Online, we provide three adaptable learning models, ensuring students can engage with mathematics in a way that best suits their learning preferences:

Full-Time Live Learning

• Best suited for students who thrive in a structured, teacher-led environment.
• Participate in 3 live lessons per week, engaging in discussions, problem-solving, and real-time feedback.
• Develop mathematical reasoning and confidence through interactive exercises and direct support.

Blended Learning Programme

• A balanced approach that integrates live instruction with self-paced study.
• Includes 1 live lesson per week, supported by 2 self-paced recorded sessions.
• Reinforces learning with downloadable resources and independent practice exercises.

Self-Paced Independent Learning

• Designed for students who prefer maximum flexibility and independent study.
• Includes 3 recorded lessons per week, allowing for personalised learning.
• Encourages self-directed problem-solving and numerical exploration.

What Will Students Learn?

Building a Holistic Understanding of Mathematics
Students develop a well-rounded grasp of mathematical principles, enabling them to approach problems with confidence and critical thinking.

Strands of Lower Secondary Mathematics
The curriculum is divided into three key strands, ensuring students build core mathematical competencies:

• Number – Developing fluency in numerical operations and problem-solving strategies.
• Algebra, Geometry & Measure – Exploring algebraic expressions, geometric reasoning, and measurement techniques.
• Statistics & Probability – Learning how to collect, interpret, and analyse data for real-world applications.

Thinking and Working Mathematically
A unique feature of our curriculum is ‘Thinking and Working Mathematically’, where students:

• Investigate mathematical relationships and challenge ideas.
• Justify solutions using logical reasoning and real-world context.
• Build connections between mathematical concepts, enhancing problem-solving skills.

Preparation for Advanced Mathematics
Students gain a strong foundation in algebra, geometry, and statistical analysis, ensuring they transition smoothly to IGCSE and beyond.
