Cambridge Matematik

Cambridge Math 

Velkommen til niveauinddelt matematik

Ved skoleårets start screenes alle elever. Herefter inddeles de på matematikhold efter niveauer.

Alle elever undervises indenfor fire hovedemner: 

1.    Numbers
2.   Algebra
3.   Shape and space
4.   Probability and statistics

Senere på skoleåret vurderer eleverne, hvilken type af Cambridge Math eksamen, de skal op til eksamen i. Der er mulighed for at tage hhv. Core eller Extended.

Core-niveauet er mindre omfangsrigt end extended, men det betyder også, at eleverne ikke kan få karakterer A*-B. De kan derimod få C-G. 

Tager eleven en extended prøve, testes der i de samme spørgmål som i core - men med yderligere spørgsmål.
