Mathematics is more part of our everyday lives than we would think and allows us to better understand the World around us. The use of numbers and figures can be found everywhere, from cooking to medicine, to the media and shopping.

The Mathematics department seeks to create a learning environment with the highest expectations founded upon principles of cooperation and respect.  Every individual is given the opportunity to achieve their potential and to feel valued. The department aims to develop learners’ skills in line with Curriculum for Wales so that they are:

• Ambitious capable learners

• Enterprising, creative contributors

• Ethical Informed citizens

• Healthy, confident individuals

Mathematics contributes to the school curriculum by developing learner's abilities to calculate, reason logically, algebraically and geometrically, to solve problems and handle data. It is also important in everyday living, in many forms of employment and in public decision making.
