Mathematics
Our goal at Rhyddings is to facilitate an environment where students can enjoy, learn and build resilience and understanding of Mathematics. We strive to enable, equip and encourage students to become accurate, efficient and flexible problem solvers; enabling them to become lifelong learners who will continue to grow mathematically in their chosen professions and to function as productive citizens.
