This course is designed for all those who have enjoyed Mathematics and succeeded at GCSE Higher Tier. Mathematics at A Level is both challenging and interesting as it builds on the topics you have met at GCSE and develops the ideas further. You will see how the algebra and geometry you have already learned can be applied to real-life situations. Having a Mathematics A-Level demonstrates to future employers that you have strong capabilities in problem-solving, logic, and analyzing situations. This course consists of three strands that are taught, side-by-side in both years; Pure Maths, Mechanics, and Statistics. There are three exams at the end of Year 13, Two covering the Pure content (66% of the qualification) and one covering both Statistics and Mechanics (33% of the qualification). This course is: • Essential for those wishing to study Mathematics at University • Highly recommended for all those studying Science, particularly Physics and Chemistry • Useful for those studying Humanities, Psychology, and other Social Sciences due to the Statistics element • Relevant to all those who will use Mathematics in future careers or courses.
Students will have passed GCSE at the Higher Tier level with a grade 6 or above, although grade 7 would be preferred. • Topic 1 – Proof • Topic 2 – Algebra and functions • Topic 3 – Coordinate geometry • Topic 4 – Sequences and series • Topic 5 – Trigonometry • Topic 6 – Exponentials and logarithms • Topic 7 – Differentiation • Topic 8 – Integration • Topic 9 – Numerical methods • Topic 10 - Vectors • Topic 1 – Statistical sampling • Topic 2 – Data presentation and interpretation • Topic 3 – Probability • Topic 4 – Statistical distributions • Topic 5 – Statistical hypothesis testing • Topic 6 – Quantities and units in mechanics • Topic 7 – Kinematics • Topic 8 – Forces and Newton’s Laws
All assessments will take place at the end of Year 13. Assessment consists of the following: • Pure Mathematics Paper 1 • Pure Mathematics Paper 2 • Applied Mathematics: Mechanics and Statistics Paper
