The aims of the Mathematics and Statistics Faculty are to:

• help foster and develop mathematical talent

Mathematics is a compulsory subject in Year 11, and it is optional for Years 12 and 13. However, many university courses list a year 12 or 13 Mathematics or Statistics course as a pre-requisite, or they list it as a preferred subject. 

Please talk with a teacher from the faculty if you are unsure about which course is suitable for your academic journey.
