Pathways of Learning (Source: Year 7-10 Ma<strong>the</strong>matics Syllabus: BOS NSW)<br />
The following diagram represents available pathways of learning in ma<strong>the</strong>matics from Early Stage 1<br />
to Stage 6. In this diagram, <strong>the</strong> Stages refer to <strong>the</strong> level of knowledge of ma<strong>the</strong>matics learning ra<strong>the</strong>r<br />
than to <strong>the</strong> stages of schooling. In this way it is acknowledged that a student who is in Year 7, for<br />
example, may still be working towards Stage 3 outcomes, just as a student in Year 8, for example,<br />
may be working towards Stage 5 outcomes.<br />
The Ma<strong>the</strong>matics Life Skills outcomes and content are designed to provide a relevant and meaningful<br />
program of study for a small percentage of students with special education needs, for whom <strong>the</strong><br />
Ma<strong>the</strong>matics Years 7–10 Syllabus outcomes and content are not appropriate.<br />
In order to cater for <strong>the</strong> full range of learners, three specific endpoints and pathways (5.1, 5.2 and 5.3)<br />
have been identified for Stage 5. The diagram shows <strong>the</strong> connection between <strong>the</strong>se three levels.<br />
Stage 5.3 includes <strong>the</strong> knowledge and skills from Stage 5.2, and Stage 5.2 includes <strong>the</strong> knowledge<br />
and skills from Stage 5.1.<br />
