Course summary

We provide an option to study both Mathematics and Further Mathematics. This counts as two A Levels (Further Mathematics cannot be studied alone). The Further Mathematics course includes compulsory Core Mathematics modules (Complex Numbers, Differential Equations, Proof, Matrices, Vectors, Coordinate Systems and Series) and there are two options that are chosen in line with the interests and aptitude of the students. These are selected from Further Pure 1 and Further Pure 2, Further Statistics, Further Mechanics and Decision.

Entry requirements

While Mathematics is rightly seen as a challenging course at A Level, pupils achieving at least a grade 8 at GCSE or IGCSE, with a real interest in the subject, have every opportunity to attain the highest grade.

How you'll be assessed

A Level Further Mathematics: four exams, each 1 hour 30 minutes with equal weighting: two Core Papers and two options papers.
