Curriculum Intent - Maths:
Learning mathematics at Liskeard School & Community College is an inter-connected journey, encouraging students to link areas of mathematics which may not be immediately obvious. We support students to think, reason and explain, aiming for them to apply their fluency skills, with conviction, to reason and problem solve. Articulating and justifying ideas is at the heart of our maths classroom culture. We teach essential skills which enable our students to be successful in their chosen next steps. Through our enthusiasm and love of mathematics, we inspire confidence, develop resilience and ensure inclusivity for all.
