The specific objectives of mathematics curriculum standards proposed: to improve students'ability to present, analyze and solve problems mathematically, mathematical expression and communication skills, and capacity to get mathematical knowledge independently; to development students mathematical application consciousness and sense of innovation, seeks to give students some mathematical thinking models, which are implied in real-world and to make judgments.This study start from the relationship among secondary school mathematics learning, creativity and the self-efficacy, employ Williams creativity test and Self-efficacy questionnaire which is amended by mathematical scholars, and select students'performance in math (last semester), mathematics teachers'comprehensive evaluation information which obtained from observation and awareness students during the process of teaching as research materials, analysis of the characteristics of students'creativity development and the relationship between the three, at the same time investigated the reliability of mathematic teachers'evaluation of students'creativity.Study found that: (1) between mathematics achievement and creativity of secondary school students; (2) there exist significant correlation between math achievement and self-efficacy, self-efficacy was significantly correlated with creativity; (3) There exist significant difference between creativity obvious group and no obvious group which are evaluated by mathematic teachers in the creative risk-taking and imaginative dimensions.
