Candidates who choose Further Mathematics also take A Level Mathematics. This is not just more mathematics, it builds on the content of the A Level Mathematics and takes the ideas further. It is best thought of as a fourth A Level for ambitious pupils intending to study Mathematics, Physics or Engineering at top universities. The course consists of a core pure mathematics section and two options which are determined each year. Core pure content: proof, complex numbers, matrices, further algebra and functions, further calculus, further vectors, polar co-ordinates, hyperbolic functions, differential equations.
Any pupils not gaining five GCSE passes at Level 4 or above must continue with the necessary number of GCSE courses until they have achieved at least five passes. All pupils (excluding overseas students) must gain at least a Level 4 in Mathematics and English.
