The Mathematics studied at A Level will extend the range of mathematical skills and techniques you learned at GCSE. You will develop an understanding of mathematical processes, progression and coherence and how different areas of Mathematics can be connected. The logic and reasoning skills developed by studying A-Level Mathematics makes it a widely respected qualification even in non-mathematical fields. A-Level Mathematics will help you understand how real-world problems can be studied using mathematical models. You will gain in confidence and be encouraged to develop an awareness of the use of Mathematics in other fields of study, the world of work and society in general.
Higher GCSE Mathematics or equivalent at grade 7 or above.
A-Level Mathematics consists of three externally examined papers and students must complete all assessment in May/June in any single year. Paper 1 – Pure Mathematics 1 (33.33% of the qualification) Written examination: 2 hours (calculator) 100 marks Paper 2 – Pure Mathematics 2 (33.33% of the qualification) Written examination: 2 hours (calculator) 100 marks Paper 3 – Applied Mathematics (33.33% of the qualification) Written examination: 2 hours (calculator) 100 marks The assessment comprises two sections: Section A – Statistics (50 marks) Section B – Mechanics (50 marks)
