Further Mathematics is a challenging qualification, which both extends and deepens knowledge and understanding beyond the standard A level of Mathematics. In addition, it will consolidate and reinforce the standard A-level Mathematics work, helping students to achieve their best possible grades, as well as learning mathematics that is very useful for any mathematically rich degree. Some prestigious university courses require students to have a Further Mathematics qualification and others may adjust their grade requirements more favourably for students with Further Mathematics.
Candidates will need a minimum of six Grade 6s or above at GCSE and will preferably have Grade 7 at GCSE in the subjects they wish to study at A Level. Students wishing to study Mathematics will require a Grade 8 or 9. For Biology or English Grade 7 will be required. We will also require a minimum of Grade 5 in both English and Mathematics. Where a subject is new at A Level, students will be required to achieve Grade 7 or Grade 6 in related subjects, reflecting the skills required for success in these courses. The full Advanced GCE Further Mathematics specification requires a student to complete 4 units of Mathematics. It should be appreciated that there is some flexibility in the choice of units to be studied. Each unit is examined by one written paper of duration one hour and thirty minutes.
