KS3 Mathematics
At Cobham Free School we aim to mould young minds into logical thinkers, able problem solvers and lifelong mathematicians using creative and reflective teaching. We believe that all students, regardless of ability, should be consistently challenged and supported on their journey throughout every key stage, recognising the importance of maths all around them and where relevant in other subjects. To support this, children are given opportunities to develop their fluency of a concept, reason mathematically using relevant language, make connections and apply their mathematical thinking to problem solving opportunities that challenge the thinking of all learners.
Our schemes of work aim to develop a depth of knowledge within each area of mathematics giving students a secure, long-term and adaptable knowledge bank enabling the ability to work effectively for their exams and beyond. Our chosen GCSE specification and application is accessible to all students, to give them every chance to show their mathematical ability and reach their potential. At CFS we entwine real-life problems, within many topics, helping students to broaden their ideas in maths and to develop their understanding of the world around them.
