This course covers pure mathematics including trigonometry as well as differential and integral calculus and applications of mathematics which includes both statistics and mechanics. The pure mathematics covers: proof, algebra and functions, coordinate geometry in the (x,y) plane, sequences and series, trigonometry including solving trigonometric equations, exponentials and logarithms, differentiation, integration, numerical methods and vectors. The applications of mathematics content includes: Statistics: statistical sampling, data presentation and interpretation, probability, statistical distributions and statistical hypothesis testing Mechanics: quantities and units in mechanics, kinematics, forces and Newton’s laws, and moments.
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.
There are three papers which will be taken in the summer of Year 13. Paper One covers Pure Mathematics, Paper Two covers Pure Mathematics and Mechanics while the third paper covers Pure Mathematics and Statistics, each paper is two hours.
