Course summary

Mathematics is taught in primary, secondary and higher education. If mathematics is chosen to study at GCSE, the Edexcel syllabus will be followed. If chosen to study at A-Level either the Edexcel, AQA or OCR syllabus will be followed. At A-Level students may choose to study Pure Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Mechanics or Statistics which all follow the Edexcel, AQA or OCR syllabus. Mathematics at AS and A-level builds on GCSE work. It involves the application of theoretical concepts to real life problems, simplifying and modelling them where appropriate in order to provide solutions. You will develop skills in reasoning, logic and proof and will understand when the use of technology in Mathematics is effective and appropriate. Questions will often be less structured than at GCSE and you will have to think through problems and decide on appropriate strategies and techniques. Maths is now a Linear A level and will only be examined at the end of year 13. The course contains Pure and Applied Maths MATHS: The course is split into Pure Maths (two thirds of the course) and Applied Maths (the other third). In the applied section both Mechanics and Statistics will be studied.
