Course summary

If you enjoy mathematics and feel confident with the work you have met so far at GCSE, then you should seriously consider Mathematics or Further Mathematics AS or A level. It is a demanding and challenging subject but your hard work and effort will be rewarded. It is also a vital support for many A levels that increasingly can involve calculations and statistical analysis. This includes subjects such as the sciences, psychology, geography, business or computing. Mathematics has wide applications in industry, business, finance, social sciences, science, technology and many other areas. Mathematics or Further Mathematics qualifications can help you towards a large range of future careers. All of the A level mathematics course content is compulsory and will be examined at the end of the course. You will study the pure, statistics and mechanics areas listed below.

Entry requirements

A typical Sixth Form student will join Year 12 with a minimum of six GCSEs at Level 5 or above, including Mathematics and English, with Level 6 achieved in those subjects they propose to study at A Level. Mathematics is a cumulative subject; it builds upon itself. So a good result in the Higher GCSE paper is essential to being successful at A level. It is a good idea to talk to your current teacher if Mathematics or Further Mathematics at A level interests you.
