Mathematics (Further)

Course summary

This subject can be chosen as a fourth A Level subject and is offered to give further depth and breadth to Sixth Form Mathematics. Pupils often take it because they want to study Mathematics, Physics or Engineering at degree level and would find a stronger mathematical background helpful. Mathematically able pupils find the extra challenge of Further Mathematics deeply rewarding and stimulating. It is a natural complement to their A Level Mathematics and the additional time spent studying maths typically boosts the standard A Level grade. Some universities will give reduced offers for certain courses if a pupil has a Grade B or above in Further Mathematics.
