Mathematics

Course summary

The Mathematics A level is a two-year linear course consisting of Pure Mathematics, Mechanics and Statistics, with students studying all three topics. The pure elements of the course include Algebra, Calculus and Trigonometry and provide the students with the tools needed for solving problems. The Statistics and Mechanics elements apply these techniques in real world contexts. Students who wish to take an AS qualification after one year may do so, but this does not count towards their final A level grade.
