Mathematics is a challenging, rewarding and surprisingly creative subject. During this course, you will learn to problem solve, particularly algebraically. There will be a great deal of abstract questions - you may make a slide rule, learn about gambling techniques – or perhaps become interested in codes. Maths is a skill that is learnt through practice – so we will use a variety of approaches to help you develop your problem-solving skills and appreciate the power of mathematical thinking. Many of the trigonometric and calculus methods taught will stretch and challenge you; but there’s a reason why universities continue to acknowledge Mathematics as one of the most sought after A levels. The majority of your work will be classroom-based, but you will also have a number of trips and opportunities to socialise with your like-minded peers. Projects are approached individually and in groups, and we will support you to make a thought-provoking presentation at the end of Year 2.
Pupils entering the sixth form are expected to have obtained ‘C’ grades in most core subjects and at least a grade B in their chosen A Level subjects. They will be expected to be able to cope with the demands of A Level courses in at least three subjects. Some A Level courses require higher GCSE grades, specific details on request from the Marketing and Admissions Team.
