In an increasingly competitive world, in which employers demand good numeracy and literacy skills, it's imperative that our students leave Maiden Erlegh with a good grasp of these basic skills. English and Maths skills are essential for any further education, job or career pathway that our students might want to follow.

At Maiden Erlegh School we recognise the fact that we are all teachers of literacy and numeracy, regardless of the subject that we teach. We strive to give students the opportunity to practise and improve on their literacy (reading, writing, listening and speaking) and numeracy skills throughout the day.
