What will you do on this course? This course enables students to study the disciplines of algebra, calculus, geometry and numerical methods which comprise the pure part of the course as well as a range of applications from the disciplines of statistics and mechanics. The course emphasises both graphical and algebraic approaches to the material, and uses relevant real-world examples, thus giving students a secure understanding on which they can build. A Level students will cover Pure Mathematics, Statistics and Mechanics. Pure topics – Proof, Problem Solving, Mathematical Modelling, Functions, Coordinate Geometry, Sequences and Series, Trigonometry, Exponentials and Logarithms, Calculus, Numerical Methods, Vectors. Statistics – Sampling, Data Representation, Probability, Statistical Distributions, Hypotheses Testing. Mechanics topics – Kinematics, Forces and Newton’s Laws, Moments.
For entry to the Sixth Form, students must gain at least 5 A*-C grades at GCSE, especially in the subjects they wish to continue studying (if applicable). Students considering the International Baccalaureate Diploma or the AQA Baccalaureate, will need at least a GCSE grade A*-C in Maths and English.
How will you be assessed? A Level Examinations – 3 papers, equally weighted: Paper 1 – Pure topics only Paper 2 – Pure and Mechanics Paper 3 – Pure and Statistics
