Mathematics is a creative discipline; its language is international, transcends cultural boundaries and its importance is universally recognised. A Level Mathematics covers Pure Mathematics and two applications, mechanics and statistics. The Pure content is two thirds of the course and is examined alongside the applications. Pure Mathematics is split into various topics. The emphasis is on problem solving which requires multi-topic knowledge. Topics are algebra, proof, coordinate geometry, sequences and series, trigonometry, exponentials and logarithms, differentiation, integration and numerical methods. Content of the applications includes: mechanics (vectors, quantities and units in mechanics, kinematics, forces and Newton’s laws and moments), statistics (statistical sampling, data presentation, and interpretation, (probability, statistical distributions and hypothesis testing).
