The Primary Mathematics syllabus aims to enable all students to:

  • Acquire mathematical concepts and skills for everyday

use and for continuous learning in Mathematics.

  • Develop thinking, reasoning, communication,

application and metacognitive skills through a mathematical approach to problem solving; and

  • Build confidence and foster interest in Mathematics
