Quality British Education in Saudi Arabia
Maths
There are two maths teachers at Dhahran British Grammar School - Mrs D Merza and Mrs J. Chambers
The aim of our teaching in mathematics is to enable students to develop their mathematical skills and understanding to the limit of their capabilities and to equip them for the demands that lie ahead of them in adult life, in employment and study. The courses seek to develop an appreciation and enjoyment of Mathematics, to raise their awareness of its importance and to contribute to the student's overall development.
In KS 3
From year 7 to year 9 we follow the National Curriculum. The textbook used is Framework Maths by OUP. This series enables the pupils to build up a firm understanding of the basic ideas and hence develop confidence and enthusiasm in their approach to the subject.
Pupils are placed in sets to enable them to work at a pace suited to their ability. All pupils in year 9 sit the UK national SAT in May which are externally marked.
Crystal Maze
The Maths Department sponsors the Mathmematical Crystal Maze and Maths Fun Week in school, a time of team games and puzzles.
