Further Mathematics is highly recommended for students who have a flair for Mathematics and wish to pursue careers in Engineering, Mathematics and Physics. The Programme of Study The course is an online course provided by the FMSP (Further Maths Support Programme). Assessments will be designed to reward students for demonstrating the ability to provide responses that draw together different areas of their knowledge, skills and understanding from across the full course of study for the AS Further Mathematics qualification and also from across the AS Mathematics qualification. Problem solving, proof and mathematical modelling will be assessed in further mathematics in the context of the wider knowledge which students taking A level further mathematics will have studied. The Pearson Edexcel Level 3 Advanced GCE in Further mathematics consist of three externally-examined papers,. Students must complete all assessments in May/June in any single year. The course consists of one ‘Pure’ component and two ‘Applied’ modules . The ‘Pure’ section consist of:- Proof Complex numbers Matrices Further Algebra and functions Further Calculus Further Vectors Polar coordinates Hyperbolic functions Differential equations For the Applied part, in Year 12, students take two of the following three options:- A: Further Statistics 1 B: Further Mechanics 1 In Year 13, students continue studying the same two applied modules from Year 12. A: Further Statistics 2 B: Further Mechanics 2 Higher Education and Career opportunities There are a large number of careers in which mathematics plays a significant part. These include: accountancy, air traffic control, architecture and surveying, economics, engineering, medicine and sciences of all types.
