Studying Mathematics, ICT, and Craft Design Technology plays is crucial in equipping young people with the skills needed to thrive in an evolving world. Mathematics develops problem-solving abilities, logical thinking, and numeracy – key skills that underpin lifelong learning and are essential for a range of careers, from finance to engineering.
Mathematics plays an important role in areas such as science or technologies and is vital to research and development in fields such as engineering, computing science, medicine and finance. Learning mathematics gives children and young people access to the wider curriculum and the opportunity to pursue further studies and interests.
Being numerate helps us to function responsibly in everyday life and contribute effectively to society. It increases our opportunities within the world of work and establishes foundations which can be built upon through lifelong learning. Numeracy is not only a subset of mathematics; it is also a life skill which permeates and supports all areas of learning, allowing young people access to the wider curriculum.’ (Education Scotland)
