Overarching Learning Outcomes

1 Students use language to understand, develop and communicate ideas and information and interact with others.

12 Students are self-motivated and confident in their approach to learning and are able to work individually and collaboratively.

13 Students recognise that everyone has the right to feel valued and be safe, and, in this regard, understand their rights and obligations and behave responsibly.

Mathematics

3 Call on a repertoire of general problem solving techniques, appropriate technology and personal and collaborative management strategies when working mathematically.

4 Choose mathematical ideas and tools to fit the constraints in a practical situation, interpret and make sense of the results within the context and evaluate the appropriateness of the methods used.

9 Decide what needs to be measured and carry out measurements of length, capacity/volume, mass, area, time and angle to needed levels of accuracy.

Overarching Learning Outcomes

1 Students use language to understand, develop and communicate ideas and information and interact with others.

2 Students select, integrate and apply numerical and spatial concepts and techniques.

4 Students select, use and adapt technologies.

6 Students visualise consequences, think laterally, recognise opportunity and potential and are prepared to test options.

12 Students are self-motivated and confident in their approach to learning and are able to work individually and collaboratively.

Mathematics

1 Show a disposition to use mathematics to assist with understanding new situations, solving problems and making decisions, showing initiative, flexibility and persistence when working mathematically and a positive attitude to their own continued involvement in learning and doing mathematics.
