Course summary

Course outline: There are three branches of study within the Further Mathematics Curriculum: CORE PURE MATHEMATICS (PAPERS 1 and 2) Core Pure Mathematics builds upon the topics covers in A-level Mathematics. It delves deeper into the mathematics to get a full understanding of the underlying concepts of classical mathematics. FURTHER STATISTICS 1 (PAPER 3B) Build upon the topics covered in A-level Mathematics. It will expose the students to more powerful technique in Statistics, how and when to apply these techniques. DECISION MATHEMATICS 1 (PAPER 3D) Decision is the application of Mathematics which involves the optimisation of problem given defined parameters. This course is designed to give the student an insight into graph theory, linear programming and algorithms. The concepts taught are very useful in the fields of computer science and programming.
