Mathematics

Course summary

A-level Mathematics is an interesting and challenging course, which extends the methods you learned at GCSE and includes applications of mathematics, such as Statistics and Mechanics. Mathematics and Further Mathematics are versatile qualifications, well-respected by employers and are both 'facilitating' subjects for entry to higher education. Careers for those with good mathematical skills and qualifications are not only well-paid, but they are also often interesting and rewarding. People who have studied mathematics are in the fortunate position of having an excellent choice of career. Whilst the number of young people studying A-level Mathematics and Further Mathematics is increasing, there is still a huge demand from science, engineering and manufacturing employers. At Fulneck we will be following the Edexcel Mathematics course, with final examinations at the end of the two-year course.
