Our Offer: Edexcel A level Further Mathematics 9FM0 (which includes Edexcel A level Mathematics 9MA0) In A level Further Mathematics, pupils study the full A level Mathematics course in the Lower Sixth (outlined above and following a similar structure) and the full A level Further Mathematics course in the Upper Sixth. The Further Mathematics course is assessed by four examination papers, two of which are compulsory and two of which are chosen by the department to offer the greatest breadth of study. These exam papers are in addition to those outlined for the A level Mathematics course above, for an award of two full A levels. Determining when to sit the award of A level Mathematics is taken on an individual basis each year. We will steer and guide you individually towards what we believe is the correct path for you to maximise the grades you receive. In the Upper Sixth, we teach: Core Pure 1 and 2 (compulsory units): these are units that develop, up to introductory degree level, topics in, for instance, Hyperbolic Functions, Complex Numbers and Second Order Differential Equations. Further Statistics 1 (Optional unit): The Poisson Distribution, Hypothesis Testing on Sample Means and Type I and II errors. Further Mechanics 1 (Optional unit): Collisions between particles in two dimensions and Energy and Impulse. In a typical year, the department has two A level Further Mathematics classes, with pupil numbers being between eight and 12 pupils. Every class has three teachers. These classes are all taught separately to the A level Mathematics classes.
Admission to the school is a conditional place based on achieving a minimum of 6x6 grade passes at GCSE; this is a minimum entry requirement and higher grades might be necessary in intended A Level subjects, namely the Sciences and Maths. Is Further Mathematics for you? If you expect to achieve very high grades at GCSE (at least a grade 8 at GCSE, or equivalent), you have experience of any additional maths qualifications or topics within your studies (this is not compulsory) and, more importantly, you wish to pursue a very challenging university career in Mathematics or Physical Sciences, then consider Further Mathematics.
