This Pearson Edexcel Level 3 Advanced GCE in Further Mathematics builds on the skills, knowledge and understanding set out in the whole GCSE subject content for mathematics and the subject content for the Pearson Edexcel Level 3 Advanced Subsidiary and Advanced GCE Mathematics qualifications. Assessments will be designed to reward pupils for demonstrating the ability to provide responses that draw together different areas of their knowledge, skills and understanding from across the full course of study. Problem solving, proof and mathematical modelling will be assessed in further mathematics in the context of the wider knowledge which pupils taking A level further mathematics will have studied. Pupils at Marlborough College sit the optional papers entitled Further Statistics 1 and Further Mechanics 1.
In late January the Director of Admissions allocates House places. At this time as much account as possible is taken of any preference a pupil has stated. In June, three months prior to entry, pupils visit the College to meet with Heads of Department, Housemasters, key members of staff and the Guidance Department to discuss A-level choices and tertiary education options. In August GCSE results are sent to Marlborough. All candidates (Scholars included) must achieve at least a six-grade BS or six 6’s in their GCSEs including English and Mathematics (in practice, most successful candidates will get more GCSEs at considerably higher grades than these). In September pupils arrive to begin their education at Marlborough.
Pupils must complete all assessments in May/June in any single year.
