Over Year 12, students consolidate their knowledge from the IGCSE syllabus and discover exciting new topics, including exponential growth, which helps you to understand population change, hypothesis testing in Statistics, which is frequently used in medical research, and particles in motion in Mechanics, which allows you to calculate how quickly you will fall to Earth while skydiving. In Year 13, you will learn new skills that allow you to model various real-life problems. Mathematics at A Level is challenging, but there is nothing like the satisfaction of completing a 3-page problem and getting the answer right. A Level Mathematics will extend your knowledge of topics studied at GCSE/ IGCSE and allow you to discover the origins of key mathematical concepts such as differentiation. If you enjoyed the problem-solving questions at GCSE/IGCSE, you would relish the challenge of Mathematics at A Level. This approach is exemplified by mathematical modelling, where you will turn a complex real-life problem into a simpler one that you will then analyse and solve using techniques you have learnt in your studies. Have you ever wondered if a pulley that would allow you to lift an elephant exists? In Mechanics, we answer such questions using Newton’s laws of motion. The skills taught in Statistics are commonly used in the wider world, such as using sampling techniques to study wildlife changes in the Amazon rainforest. To aid your studies, we use Integralmaths, an online resource with online quizzes, lesson aids and extension problems for you to try. A Level of Mathematics complements the study of computing, economics, geography, music, psychology and the sciences. Follow a degree course in Mathematics, Finance, Computing, Engineering, Statistics, Biology, Psychology, Geography, Economics, Physics, Natural Sciences etc. It is harder to find a career that does not involve Mathematics than it is to name one that does. Mathematics is a sought-after A Level for many jobs. There are the traditional mathematical careers of engineering, medicine, actuarial, accounting and banking, programming and now the emerging mathematical fields of internet security and artificial intelligence. Mathematics A Level is also sought by law firms, who wish for their trainees to have a high level of numeracy and many companies are also increasingly looking for employees who have a higher level of financial literacy than is taught at GCSE.
A minimum of 7 GCSEs awarded at grade 6 or above. These should include English and Mathematics. GCSE/ IGCSE Mathematics grade 8 preferable
Exams: Pure and Mechanics (2 hrs), Pure and Statistics (2 hrs) and Pure and Comprehension (2 hrs). Coursework: None
