Further Mathematics students make the commitment to study a significant range of mathematical techniques in great depth. They are the elite of young mathematicians and must be extremely well-motivated and capable of studying Mathematics both collaboratively and independently in order to keep up with the fast pace of the course. Students typically progress to study Mathematics-intensive subjects in the best university departments. Indeed, some prestigious university courses will much prefer students with Further Mathematics qualifications.
In order to proceed automatically to the Sixth Form, a student must achieve a minimum of six (1)GCSEs at grade 6/B, and in most cases, a grade 7/A or higher in the subjects chosen to study at A-Level. A-level mathematics and Further Mathematics have higher requirements. Subjects that are new at A-Level will have requirements from (1)GCSEs that assess appropriate skills, e.g. Economics requires a grade 7 or higher in both English Language and Mathematics. Further Mathematics students would have reached set I in Mathematics by Year II and have been selected to complete the Level 2 Certificate in Further Mathematics. Separately, students must have achieved 90% or higher at (1)GCSE Mathematics
