For students who really enjoy maths and want to pursue it to the highest level, Further Maths is the perfect course to study alongside A level Mathematics. This is a 2-year linear course, with emphasis both on taught lessons in small groups, and students’ self-studying with support. The A level course books published by Pearson Edexcel are followed, supplemented with other resources and practice exam questions, to encourage students’ best possible progress.
To study A Level (or AS) Further Maths, students are expected to have passed GCSE (or equivalent) Maths with a Grade 8 or 9 (A*), and be very keen to extend their passion for maths further.
During the Summer Term at the end of Year 13, students take 4 externally assessed exams, which are each 1 hour 30 minutes long. An alternative option, AS Level Further Maths, is essentially one half of the A Level syllabus. There are 2 externally assessed exam papers, which are each 1 hour 40 minutes long.
