Mathematics is designed for the student who has studied Mathematics to a high standard at GCSE and intends to study a degree programme which may contain a high mathematical content, either as a pure subject or within such disciplines such as physics, engineering and technology. Students will be expected to develop their understanding of the process of mathematical modelling through the study of mathematical methods and to use these skills to: • Abstract from a real situation • Solve problems • Interpret and communicate results Mathematics is not regarded as easy but is well respected. At the end of the course students will have improved their analytical skills, become more independent learners and better at problem solving. These skills and the knowledge developed on the course are highly regarded by Higher Education courses and potential employers.
Circumstances vary from student to student but you will need to have achieved a minimum of 5 GCSE passes, at grade 6, including English and Maths, however we would be willing to consider a grade 5 in some subjects, at the discretion of the Academy. The aim of this course is to build on the knowledge, understanding and skills established at GCSE It is important that students have at least a grade 7 at GCSE Mathematics and have an attitude to learning of a 4 or above throughout Year 11. In addition to this, an aptitude for algebra and a great deal of work and time will be needed to succeed.
3 exams at the end of Year 13 (no coursework) Paper 1 – Pure Paper 2 – Pure and Statistics Paper 3 – Pure and Mechanics
