MATHS at PARRS WOOD
Mathematics is a popular subject at Parrs Wood with a high number of pupils choosing to continue its study into A-Level.
The Maths Faculty aims to bring Maths to life to ensure that all pupils can access and enjoy the curriculum.
As teachers we strive to provide a rich and meaningful course that will allow each pupil to reach their potential.
Homework
Each teaching group will receive a minimum of one homework per week. This will be set and collected by their class teacher. In addition to this, all students are expected to study independently to consolidate their learning and revise for module exams.
Students may find the ‘Mathswatch’ CD a useful tool for revision and consolidation. These are recommended by the department as an independent learning resource and are available from the maths office for £4.
