Mathematics at Farringdon Community Sports College

Mathematics is at the heart of every day life. It is an essential skill in all walks of life, whether it is used to calculate how much change we expect to get from a £20 note or to plan the trajectory of a space probe to Mars. Maths can provide us with essential life skills, as well as being at the heart of mankind’s more adventurous endeavours and everything in between. In a changing world in which people find skills in the workplace more important than ever, we feel that it is essential to provide these skills and present them in an interesting and relevant way.
