All our boys will have the basic maths skills they need to make good choices in the real world.
Understanding maths underpins all we do as adults. Shopping, paying bills, getting paid, cooking and much more. We work to ensure all students understand the maths that sit behind these things so that they can function independently as adults. We teach them maths during maths classes but we also show them maths across all subjects so that they can see for themselves how it works and how important it is.
Maths is not just about numbers. We teach the problem solving skills and resilience necessary to succeed in the world: a life skill that helps solve maths problems.
We will have high expectations of all and work to ensure every child achieves the highest possible qualification.
Our small class sizes allow us to tailor our lessons for each individual. We identify a pupils potential and then teach lessons that allow that child to reach their full potential by the time they leave Sky. We recognise the impact of the outside challenges on learning and have designed a curriculum that allows us to push forward or hold back depending upon each pupil’s mindset in any given day or week. As a result, we build on prior knowledge, fill gaps in knowledge and allow every child see the success and progress they are making.
