This year, ABIS is pleased to be able to offer two Maths courses in grade 11. Comparing student attitudes from last year to this year, it is clear that offering these two courses is allowing our students to find an approach to Maths that is more personal and meaningful.

  • Maths Studies SL is an application oriented course with emphasis on statistics and technology
  • Mathematics SL is a theory oriented course with emphasis on proof and calculus.

While both classes cover many similar topics, the approach to teaching and learning is focused on the future plans of each individual students.

Take some time this weekend to ask your child if he/she is ready to remain committed to the work load of the chosen course. How do they plan to balance this significant load with the greater joys in life?
