Course summary

Mathematics is a subject that provides excellent transferable skills that can be applied to a wide range of subjects. Universiti es place a high value on the subject because it shows the individual is capable of in-depth, independent study. Ofqual is currently in the process of reviewing new A Level Maths specifions for first teaching in September 2017. The content of AS and A-Level Mathematics has been fixed. All pupils will study pure mathematics, mechanics and statistics (including analysis of the real world, and large data sets). There will be more emphasis on problem-solving, reasoning and modelling, and a requirement for the use of technology. Once the specifications have been accredited, the Mathematics Department will choose the one that they believe best suits Badminton girls and their aspirations. In line with A-level mathematics, Further Mathematics is also undergoing a national review. For those with a real passion and talent for the subject, Further Mathematics can be an immensely rewarding and satisfying course of study. There will be some choice of content in the Further Mathematics AS and A Level courses. As with the Mathematics course, the department will review all specifications that are accredited and choose the most suitable. Girls who choose to study Further Mathematics will complete their A Level Mathematics course in Year 12 and then complete the A Level Further Mathematics Course in Year 13.
