Stage 5 - Mathematics


Course Overview

Mathematics provides students with the opportunity to develop increasingly sophisticated and refined mathematical understanding, fluency, communication, reasoning, analytical thought and problem-solving skills. These capabilities enable students to respond to familiar and unfamiliar situations by employing strategies to make informed decisions and solve problems, relevant to their present and future needs.

Course Content
  • Financial Mathematics
  • Ratios & Rates
  • Surds & Indices
  • Algebraic Techniques

  • Trigonometry
  • Coordinate Geometry
  • Deductive Geometry
  • Single variable and bivariate data analysis
Course Assessment

Written tests, assignments and examinations will measure how well students:

  • develop understanding and fluency in mathematics through inquiry, exploring and connecting mathematical concepts,choosing and applying problem-solving skills and mathematical techniques, communication and reasoning (Working Mathematically).
  • develop efficient strategies for numerical calculation, recognise patterns, describe relationships and apply algebraic techniques and generalisation (Number and Algebra).
  • identify, visualise and quantify measures and the attributes of shapes and objects, and explore measurement concepts and geometric relationships, applying formulas, strategies and geometric reasoning in the solution of problems (Measurement and Geometry).
  • collect, represent, analyse, interpret and evaluate data, assign and use probabilities, and make sound judgements (Statistics and Probability).
