Mathematics
Overview
The Mathematics Department aims to develop every Kent Ridgean as a confident and competent problem solver. We seek to provide windows of opportunities for students to plan, act, reflect and grow in their problem-solving competencies both during formal lessons as well as through enrichment programmes and alternative assessments such as:
The Study Buddy Programme | Our students opt in to this programme to gain more confidence in mathematical problem solving by engaging in online discussions with mentors from institutes of higher learning |
Mathematics Competitions | Our students seek challenges by participating in competitions at national level |
Alternative Assessments | Our students exercise creativity in problem solving as they partake in alternative assessments focusing on application and integration of knowledge to address problems situated in real world context |
Through the development of sound habits of mind, a strong foundation, a reflective mindset towards application and integration of learning and a focus on continual learning, our students persevere through their learning years in Kent Ridge to emerge a better problem solver with solutions to their future world.
