Our department is mainly student oriented since they are the rely the most on us. For this reason, we try our level best to upgrade the teaching environment in the Department. New teaching techniques are being introduced to make both teaching and learning more enriching. During Departmental meetings we reflect how to improve teaching- methods that can be used in the classroom to yield better results are being implemented. Additional Mathematics was introduced in 2007, on a pilot base, at Form III level for the first time at RTSS and MGSS Nouvelle France. The syllabus was designed and prepared by the RTSS Mathematics Department. The members of the Department dedicate themselves to pupils in the development of Mathematical understanding and personal achievement. Mathematics is a ‘critical filter’ in the social, economic and professional development of individuals (Beessoondyal.H, 2005). Good teaching is a key to improve student achievement. The Department has successfully achieved its goal by bringing a 99.1% pass in Mathematics and 90 % pass in Additional Mathematics in 2006 and 100% pass in Mathematics and % in Additional Mathematics in 2007. We were also expecting good results from our first batch of HSC students and they lived up to our expectations by bringing a pass rate of %. We wish them good luck and thank them not letting us down in our expectations.
