Year 8 Maths
One of the main differences between Key Stage 2 and Key Stage 3 mathematics is that as you progress through Key Stage 3 you learn new skills and topics more frequently. In year 8 you will be taught an introduction to percentages including relating common fractions to percentages, changing fractions and decimals to percentages using tenths and hundredths as well as changing percentages to fractions and decimals. In addition to this you will learn the rules for indices and expressions; adding indices when multiplying terms with the same base, subtracting indices when dividing terms with the same base and multiplying indices when raising a power to a power. Although in previous years, Year 7 Maths you will have been introduced to statistics and the mean, you will now learn how to find the range, mode and median of grouped data and from a frequency distribution too and you will take this even further in Year 9 Maths.

Key Stage 3
Year 9 Maths
Year 9 explains topics such as trigonometric ratios, constructions and loci, circumcentre and incentre and Pythagorean triples.
Key Stage 4
Foundation Maths
Experimental probability, relative frequency, equations involving grouping symbols are some of the areas taught in Foundation Maths.
Key Stage 4
Higher Mathematics
At Higher Mathematics you will be taught surds, surface are formulae and you will also be introduced to circle geometry as well.
Key Stage 5
Core Mathematics
You will learn algebra-polynomials, polynomial equations, the remainder theorem, absolute value and roots quad equations.
