Mathematics is the science of numbers, shapes, and patterns. It involves logical reasoning and abstract thinking to solve problems and better understand the world around us. At its core, mathematics seeks to uncover and describe the relationships between different quantities, observe and analyse various structures, and represent these concepts using symbols, formulas, and expressions. The field of mathematics encompasses diverse topics, including algebra, analysis, geometry, statistics, and more.

Our students begin learning mathematics in P1 and continue all the way to the European Baccalaureate at the end of S7. The aims of teaching mathematics are to improve the critical thinking and problem-solving skills of our students and to provide a foundation for other scientific subjects such as physics and chemistry. Through a solid understanding of mathematics, students gain better insight into both themselves and the world around them.

In S4, students choose whether to continue with the basic mathematics course or transition into a more challenging advanced course that covers broader topics and offers a more detailed exploration of various mathematical concepts. Students following the advanced course can have up to six mathematics lessons per week, which can increase to eight lessons per week in S6 and S7 if they select advanced mathematics as an optional subject.

Students graduating from ESLJ will possess the mathematical skills and knowledge necessary to be responsible members of the European Union and have a strong foundation for their future studies.
