Further Mathematics is a second qualification taken in addition to A level Mathematics. The qualification is both deeper and broader than A level Mathematics. A level Further Mathematics builds from GCSE level and A level Mathematics. As well as building on algebra and calculus introduced in A level Mathematics, the A level Further Mathematics core content introduces complex numbers and matrices, fundamental mathematical ideas with wide applications in mathematics, engineering, physical sciences and computing. A level Further Mathematics prepares students for further study and employment in highly mathematical disciplines that require knowledge and understanding of sophisticated mathematical ideas and techniques. Students study core content in year 12 consisting of Complex Numbers, Matrices, Algebra and Functions, as well as this students will study applied content. In year 13 students extend their work from A level Mathematics introducing Further Calculus, Further Vectors and Polar Coordinates. They also study for further applied content.
• To enter Sixth Form you require 5 GCSE’s Grade 4 and above, including English or Maths. • For students who typically attain 9-5 grades at GCSE. • Grade 7 in Maths.
All public exams are taken at the end of year 13. Students will sit four papers.
