THE SALT GRAMMAR SCHOOL MATHS FACULTY

Welcome to the Salt Grammar School Maths web page. As a specialist school for Maths and Computing we are understandably proud of our status as a leading Faculty within the school. We hope that this page will help to provide a little information about what we are about and provide an additional link between home and school to provide curriculum information, resources, news and help.

Salt Maths department continues to improve and develop. We are a strong team of eleven specialist staff with a wealth of experience across all key stages.Our specialist status has been instrumental in refurbishing seven dedicated maths classrooms with interactive whiteboards which has had a significant impact on the delivery of the maths curriculum.

In Key Stage 3 our students have increasingly benefited from our commitment to transition and successful implementation of the National Numeracy Strategy which is now fully embedded. We are pleased with our recent SATs results and continue to drive up the numbers of students working at level five or above.

The picture in Key stage 4 is equally encouraging with well over 50% of students attaining grade C and higher. This success is further reflected in the keen take up for AS and A2 Mathematics including the very demanding Further Maths courses.
