The Report by the Department's Inspectorate of the teaching of maths in St Mary's describes some of the teaching as 'outstanding'. The inspectors' report, published in Dec 2014, gives a glowing description of the teaching and learning in the school. It lists many aspects of our work as 'best practice' with special praise for the transition for students coming in to First Year and for the breadth and depth of the Maths Department Subject Plan.
Meanwhile the number of students studying Honours Level Maths at Junior Cert and Leaving Cert continues to grow. Three class groups are taking honours in 3rd year while two class groups in 6th year.
