Further Mathematics can only be studied alongside Mathematics. It extends the skills and concepts studied in the single A Level as well as introducing new ones. Two parts of the course are compulsory pure mathematics. For the remaining two parts, there is considerable flexibility depending on which areas of mathematics you most enjoy. This will be decided at the end of Year 12. Studying Further Mathematics is for students who are passionate about mathematics and whose favourite thing is to sit down with a challenging problem. Students require a very strong, independent work ethic and regard the work set as the minimum.
A typical academic profile of a girl entering Year 12 is 10 GCSEs, with the majority in grades 7 to 9. These must include English and Mathematics at Grade 6 or above AND at least a Grade 7 in those subjects you wish to study at A Level (Grade 9 in Mathematics to study Further Mathematics). Grade 9 in GCSE or IGCSE Mathematics.
Two compulsory papers of Core Pure Mathematics and then two selected options from Further Pure Mathematics, Further Statistics, Further Mechanics and Decision Mathematics modules. Each paper is equally weighted.
