Mathematics is a stimulating and challenging course that increases knowledge and understanding of mathematical techniques and applications while developing key employability skills, such as problem-solving, logical reasoning, communication, and resilience. These courses require commitment and hard work from the outset. Homework and assignments will be given regularly, and high standards in the quality of work and meeting deadlines will be expected. All Mathematics and Engineering courses and most Science courses require A-level Mathematics. Most university courses in non-linguistic subjects now include one or two modules in Statistics, for which Mathematics can help to provide a sound basis. Some non-mathematical technical subjects (eg Computing/Business Studies) will also require one or two mathematical modules (extending beyond GCSE Higher Tier) for which Pure Maths can also help to provide a useful basis.
Our general Sixth Form entry requirement is 5 GCSEs at grades 4 - 9. An ideal candidate has at least a grade 6 in Higher Tier GCSE Maths.
Paper 1: Pure Maths ◦ Students must answer all questions. ◦ Calculators can be used in the assessment Written exam: 2 hours 33.33% of the A level 100 marks Paper 2: Pure Maths 2 All the content of the specification for Paper 1 is assumed knowledge for Paper 2 and may also be tested within parts of questions. ◦ Students must answer all questions. ◦ Calculators can be used in the assessment. Paper 3: Statistics and Mechanics ◦ The assessment comprises two sections: Section A – Statistics and Section B – Mechanics. Each section is worth 50 marks. ◦ Students must answer all questions. ◦ Calculators can be used in the assessment. Written exam: 2 hours 33.33% of the A level 100 marks
