In Mathematics we aim to foster rational thinking and develop an appreciation for the beauty of the natural world. We promote intellectual curiosity and equip you with the skills needed to be critical observers and problem-solvers. Mathematical ability is one of the most highly prized assets for a wide variety of university courses and careers. Mathematics offers you the chance to challenge yourself and face complex problems that will require perseverance and dedication to solve. In the Sixth Form, we utilise the ideas and techniques taught previously to discover links between the different mathematical disciplines and push your understanding of all areas. You explore not only how to solve different problems, but why those methods work and how you can adapt methods to solve new styles of problems. Proof, discussion, discovery and investigation are all skills that you will develop, enabling you to approach other subjects with greater analytical skills.
For the Further Mathematics course, you would be expected to achieve a 9 at GCSE / IGCSE Mathematics.
2 1.5-hour papers on pure mathematics and 2 1.5-hour option papers.
