During the 1st year students will study AS mathematics. They will be taught elements from Pure Mathematics, Mechanics and Statistics. Pure Mathematics builds on GCSE Mathematics and covers the topics of Proof, Algebra and Functions, Coordinate geometry in the (x, y) plane, Sequences and Series, Differentiation, Integration, Trigonometry, Exponentials, Logarithms and Vectors. In Statistics students will cover the topics of Statistical Sampling, Data Presentation and Interpretation, Probability, Statistical Distributions and Statistical Hypothesis Testing. In Mechanics students will solve problems using mathematical modelling techniques and graphical methods. Topics include constant acceleration, variable acceleration, scalar and vector forces and application of Newton’s laws. Students who carry on with Mathematics A Level in the 2nd year will build upon all the topics from AS. They will also study moments in Mechanics and numerical methods in Pure Mathematics
6 grade 5-9 passes including 5 or higher English Lang AND Math Grade 6 or higher in GCSE Maths
Exams 100% For AS Level in Mathematics there will be two papers, a 2 hour Pure Mathematics paper and 1 hour Statistics and Mechanics paper. For A Level in Mathematics there will be three 2 hour papers; two Pure Mathematics papers and one Statistics and Mechanics paper.
