Students build a strong platform of core skills (algebra, trigonometry, curve sketching and calculus) which can be applied in a variety of increasingly challenging problems, as well as modelling real life situations in statistics and mechanics. We use a variety of approaches: teacher led explanations, modelling good practice, questioning, individual work, interactive games and peer demonstrations. The content of A level mathematics is now the same for all exam boards. All Year 12 students will cover further mathematics, and may be considered to enter the AS level examination if they do not continue into Year 13. This is examined by two written papers. The A level qualification will be taken in four written papers at the end of year 13, two Pure Maths papers, one Decision Maths and one Mechanics paper.
- Grade 7/8/9 at GCSE Mathematics - 5 grade 5’s or more at GCSE (or equivalent qualifications) including English and Maths.
The topics covered in further mathematics build on those covered in A-level mathematics. Students will study further pure topics and develop their understanding of statistics and mechanics further.
