In this one-year course, students will build on the skills acquired at GCSE and will expand their learning in the practical applications of Mathematics. This includes familiar and new topics such as percentages, personal finance, taxation, graphical techniques, data analysis, estimation techniques, and use of spreadsheets as well as critical path and risk analysis. We recommend anyone studying one or more of the complementary subjects listed below to add Core Mathematics as a fourth subject (if they have not chosen A Level Mathematics). Compulsory Content: Collect and analyse a sample, use of spreadsheets, percentages and interest rates, cost of credit, interpret graphs, taxation, solutions to financial problems, budgeting, Fermi estimations, mathematical modelling, and critically analyse headlines and mathematical models. Optional Content: Normal Distribution, confidence intervals, correlation and regression, product moment correlation coefficient, summarise data by calculations. For more information, please see the full prospectus.
