Year 12: • Students study A-Level Mathematics in a single year. • The Pure Mathematics content extends students’ knowledge of Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, and Vectors as well as introduces new concepts in Calculus, Logarithms, Numerical Methods, and Differential Equations. • In Statistics students learn to analyse and summarise numerical data in order to arrive at conclusions about it. Knowledge of Probability Distributions will be extended to include the Normal Distribution and the Binomial Distribution. • In Mechanics students describe the motion of objects and analyse how they react to forces acting upon them. Year 13: • Students study A-Level Further Mathematics in a single year. • The Pure Mathematics content will extend the topics from Year 12 as well as introduce new concepts such as Complex Numbers, Matrices, Hyperbolic Functions, and Polar Coordinates.
You must have achieved five GCSEs at grade 4 or better. At least a grade 8 in Mathematics GCSE.
Year 13: Students will sit all of the examinations for A-Level Mathematics and Further Mathematics. Edexcel A-Level Further Mathematics is examined at the end of the course by four papers each worth 25% of the course. • Core Pure 1 • Core Pure 2 • Further Pure 1 • Further Mechanics 1 All papers require access to a good scientific calculator and paper 3 requires probability distribution functions.
