Mathematics Scheme of Work for JSS1 to SS3
Mathematics at JSS1 covers whole numbers, fractions, binary numbers, and basic algebra. JSS2 and JSS3 build through equations, graphs, geometry, trigonometry, and statistics, closing with the JSSCE. SS1 through SS3 deepen into logarithms, quadratic equations, trigonometry, circle geometry, calculus, and financial mathematics, ending in WAEC/NECO preparation. Below is the full scheme of work for all six levels, every term, so you always know exactly what comes next.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does ₦5,000 cover the whole session for every level?
Yes. One payment of ₦5,000 gets you First, Second, and Third Term notes for JSS1, JSS2, JSS3, and SS1 and SS2, plus every term available for SS3.
Why does JSS3 Third Term look different?
JSS3 Third Term is structured around the JSSCE, so after central tendency, data presentation, and revision, the term moves into a mock examination and the JSSCE itself.
Why does SS3 only have two terms?
Mathematics at SS3 runs a First Term covering logic, matrices, and longitude and latitude, and a Second Term focused on coordinate geometry, differentiation, and integration, ahead of WAEC/NECO exams.
Does this scheme apply nationwide?
The core topic sequence follows the national curriculum, though individual schools sometimes adjust pacing around their own midterm and exam dates.
Can I get the lesson notes already written?
Yes. We can write the full set for you, JSS1 to SS3, the whole session. Message us on WhatsApp to get started.
