Many people view mathematics as mere arithmetic; at Francis Holland, we seek to show pupils the beauty, creativity, rigour and real-world application of this rich and vital subject. We understand mathematics not only as a fundamental science but also as an essential tool that is necessary for adults worldwide. We appreciate that many students experience anxiety about mathematics at some point in their lives, and our approach aims to develop confidence while encouraging pupils to achieve their academic potential. A wide range of extra-curricular opportunities across all years teach students that mathematics is about so much more than numbers.
We welcome external candidates to the Sixth Form, who are assessed on the basis of reports from their existing schools, written tests, interviews and GCSE predictions. We strongly recommend that all girls have achieved at least grade 7s (A grades) in their chosen A level subjects, as those with lower grades are likely to find the Sixth Form course challenging. Both internal and external candidates may compete for Academic Sixth Form Scholarships. These examinations take place in November each year. Scholarships are also awarded for Art, Drama and Music.
