11MAE

Year 11 Mathematics Essential

Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Ms K. Thorne.

Students will continue to develop skills within all areas of the Mathematics Curriculum; however this course contains less Algebra than the Year 11 MAT General Mathematics course and has a focus on making sure students achieve their NCEA Numeracy Co-requisite. 

The study and application of the mathematics curriculum will enable students to achieve at all levels of the Achievement Standards in this course. This course leads on to the Year 12 General Mathematics or Statistics course but is not suitable students wishing to progress to the Year 12 Calculus course. It is also not recommended that students intending to study Physics in Year 12 choose this course and instead select 11MAT - General Mathematics.
