Mathematics
At Rondebosch we aspire to develop independent thinkers and problem solvers. We have seven full time Maths teachers who work hard to help the young men reach their full potential during their stay at RBHS. In Grades 10 – 12, we build on concepts already learnt and introduce, amongst others, Trigonometry, Analytical Geometry and Calculus.
We encourage boys to take responsibility for their own learning and offer top learners the opportunity to participate in external Olympiads. We also offer support to those boys who struggle with Mathematics with a smaller class size and additional Maths sessions after school. All boys are exposed to routine questions and then extended further to be able to solve complex problems and unseen scenarios using the knowledge gained in Core Maths.

Mathematical Literacy
Mathematical Literacy is a subject that uses mathematical concepts and applies them to everyday situations. Typical lessons include how to buy a house, including calculating transfer fees, legal fees and bond repayment amounts; the benefits and downfalls of hire-purchase; reading and interpreting statistics in newspaper articles; and how to calculate income tax.
