This is a course for those who want to keep up their valuable Maths skills but are not planning to take AS or A Level Mathematics. At the end of the course, you will come out with a level 3 qualification – similar to an AS Level. Students will sit all the exams at the end of their course. The assessment will be 2 papers, each of 90 minutes, where much of the content questions are based on pre-released preliminary material. Core Maths won’t be anything like GCSE Maths as it will be based on activities that give you the chance to find new ways of thinking to solve concrete problems. Core Maths has been designed to maintain and develop real-life Maths skills. What you study is not purely theoretical or abstract; it can be applied on a day-to-day basis in work, study or life and will include a financial Maths element. It will also help with other A Level subjects – in particular with Sciences and Social Sciences.
You will need a Grade 5 or above in Mathematics at GCSE.
