Further Mathematics A level - linear course This course is studied over two years and includes new topics from further pure maths such as complex numbers, matrices and more advanced algebra. There are two applied modules, chosen from statistics, mechanics or discrete maths. Students are assessed on their skills in Mathematical argument, language and proof, Mathematical problem solving and Mathematical modelling.
A GCSE Grade 8 or above is required in Mathematics to study the Further Mathematics course.
Assessment is by three two hour examinations with a mix of question styles, from short, single-mark questions to multi-step problems. The examinations are equally weighted with approximately two thirds topics from further pure maths, one third applied modules. Further Mathematics is only available to students who are also studying A-level Mathematics.
