Edexcel A-Level Further Mathematics course comprises of one compulsory unit and two options. Core Pure - complex numbers, matrices, series, algebra and functions, proof, vectors and calculus, hyperbolic functions, polar coordinates, differential equations. Options: • Further Pure - Further trigonometry, further calculus, further differentiation equations, coordinate systems, group theory, 3D matrices and number theory. • Further Mechanics - momentum and impulse, energy and power, elastic string problems, collisions, circular motion, centre of mass, simple harmonic motion. • Further Statistics - discrete probability distributions, Poisson & binomial distributions, geometric distributions, central limit theorem, continuous random variables, chi-squared test. • Decision Maths - algorithms and networks, graph theory, critical path analysis, network flow, dynamic programming and game theory. The options are chosen at the beginning of the course to best match the strengths and future pathways of the students.
Our Sixth Form entry also requires an interview with the Heads of Sixth Form, after which a conditional offer will be made and will be dependent upon agreed GCSE grade requirements. Our standard requirement is Grade 6 or above in the chosen A-Level subjects (or relevant subject), Grade 5 or above in English and Maths and Grade 4 or above in non-related GCSE subjects.
