Mathematics
Course summary

Mathematics in the sixth form at St Thomas More Catholic School is offered at a variety of levels. This enables students to choose the course or level of qualification which best accompanies their other subject choices. Students can choose from; Further Mathematics, A Level Mathematics and A/S Mathematics So why should you choose an AS or A‐ level in Mathematics? Well despite the obvious enjoyment and challenge it will provide, a qualification at this level in Mathematics is a true access tool for so many areas in both higher education and also in the real world of work. An A‐Level in Mathematics is an obvious requirement for any degree course involving mathematics and many Universities also require an A‐Level in Further Mathematics. Mathematics is seen as being highly desirable in many other areas. Cambridge University recommends that any 16 year old who is unsure of their future direction should definitely consider Mathematics as one of their options as it opens access perhaps surprisingly to the Humanities and Social Sciences and also the more probable areas of Medicine, Science and Engineering. The Casio FX‐991EX ClassWiz Advanced Scientific Calculator is required for this course and will be available from the school for £20
