Students in year 9 are placed into classes for Mathematics based on their performance in year 8 Maths. Classes are taught in either the 5.3 (Advanced), 5.2 (Intermediate) or 5.1 (Standard) mathematics course. Students will be assessed based on the level made available to them. It should be noted that students who wish to attempt the assessment higher than their current level are welcome to, and need to simply request this opportunity. Students complete 8 periods per fortnight. Further information about requirements of students, including an assessment timeline, can be found in the Mathematics Stage 5 letter sent home at the beginning of each year. The head teacher (relieving) of Mathematics for year 9 is Mrs Iacona.
