The aims and objectives of this qualification are to enable students to understand mathematics and mathematical processes in a way that promotes confidence, fosters enjoyment and provides a strong foundation for progress to further study. Students will be able to extend their range of mathematics skills and techniques obtained in GCSE, and use these to solve challenging problems and generalise mathematically through algebraic concepts and modelling, as well as be aware of the relevance of mathematics to the world of work and to situations in society in general. Year 1 Pure: – Algebraic Expressions – Quadratics – Equations and Inequalities – Graphs and Transformations – Straight Line Graphs – Circles – Algebraic Methods – The Binomial Expansion – Trigonometric Ratios – Trigonometric Identities and Equations – Vectors – Differentiation – Integration – Exponentials and Logarithms Year 1 Statistics and Mechanics: – Data Collection – Measures of Location and Spread
Two Grade 6 and four Grade 5 at GCSE level Grade 6 or more at GCSE Higher Mathematics (Grade 7 or more is preferable)
Students will sit two Mock papers at the end of Year 12 – 1 Pure Mathematics Paper and 1 Statistics and Mechanics Paper End of Year 13 (A-Level Qualification) Three A-Level Papers [each worth a ⅓ of the qualification] – Paper 1: Pure Mathematics (2 hours) – Paper 2: Pure Mathematics (2 hours) – Paper 3: Statistics and Mechanics (2 hours)
