Year 9 Maths
The Year 9 program covers Number and Algebra, Measurement and Geometry, Statistics and Probability, and introduces the study of Trigonometry. Students use appropriate strategies to solve problems and link mathematical ideas and the relevant terminology and notations to explain their thinking processes. Our Year 9 program places a great deal of importance on consolidating prior mathematical knowledge and laying the strongest foundations for senior Mathematics at every level.

Helped with exam logic
“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.”View on Google
