Although usually seen as a support subject, Mathematics has a great deal more to offer. At A Level, students’ ability to reason logically and precisely is refined and progress is made towards modelling the real world. Although technically challenging, it is intellectually rewarding for those prepared to fully engage themselves. Such students often proceed to Higher Education courses involving Mathematics.
Students considering transfer to King’s Sixth Form are required to meet the entry requirements of an average of grade 6 or higher across eight GCSE subjects, with a minimum of a grade 5 in both Mathematics and English Language (university matriculation requirements). Most subjects recommend a grade 7 - 9 in a subject to be studied at A Level, and this is compulsory for Mathematics and Science subjects. In addition, subjects with a large mathematical content, such as Economics, require a minimum of grade 7 in Mathematics. Students must have achieved a minimum of GCSE grade 7 in Mathematics to study and succeed in this subject; algebraic fluency is a key requirement.
