In Year 8, students consolidate their algebraic skills and develop more sophisticated ways to represent and communicate their mathematical understanding. They cover the key curriculum components of financial mathematics, ratios and rates, linear and non-linear relationships, data, circles and cylinders and properties of geometrical figures.

“I engaged Cluey to give my daughter the edge. She was already a great maths student but she wanted to be better and there were questions in tests that were not answered in her classroom putting her at a disadvantage. My daughter gets alot of enjoyment out of the cluey sessions and they have made a huge difference. My daughter loves maths and wants to pursue it as a career option so Cluey has been the perfect fit for her.”
