The aim of these courses is to enable students to develop their understanding of mathematical processes in a positive way, fostering confidence and enjoyment in the application of mathematics. Students will develop the skills to enable real world situations, such as understanding and using technology, computers and calculators, to be represented as mathematical models. Mathematics is then an effective means of communication and essential and relevant to many other fields of study, to the world of work and to society in general.
The basic requirement for starting this course would normally be at least a grade 5 at GCSE (with all the material in the Higher Tier covered).
The A Level course consists of a variety of topics from Pure Mathematics, Mechanics and Statistics. Students are assessed at the end of the two- year course through three papers, each 2 hours long. The first is entirely Pure Mathematics, the second a mixture of Pure and Mechanics, and the third a mixture of Pure and Statistics.
