This course expects students to use complex mathematical skills and knowledge to solve problems. It is delivered at Tormead as a fourth A Level complementing the choice of Mathematics A Level which underpins this qualification. Further Mathematics A Level is designed for students who find A Level Mathematics highly accessible and who wish to devote over half their A Level study time to mathematics. It is a highly specialist and demanding qualification.
Conditional offers are made in early December. Students are expected to achieve a minimum of eight GCSE passes with at least seven at Grade 7 or above. We also expect the students to obtain a Grade 7 or above in those subjects they wish to study in Sixth Form.
The course has two compulsory components with students selecting two further options to be examined on. Paper 1: Core Pure Mathematics 1 (25% of A Level) Paper 2: Core Pure Mathematics 2 (25% of A Level) In these units students study proof, complex numbers, matrices, further algebra and functions, further calculus, further vectors, polar coordinates, hyperbolic functions, and differential equations. Assessed by written exam. Paper 3: Further Mathematics Option 1 (25% of A Level)
