Further Mathematics is for those students who wish to extend their study of Post 16 Mathematics. The course encourages students to understand mathematics and mathematical processes that promote confidents, and enjoyment and provide a strong foundation for further study while extending your range of mathematical studies and techniques. The topics covered by Further Mathematics are more sophisticated and conceptually advanced compared to the single A-level Mathematics.
GCSE Mathematics graded 9 to 7.
Year 12 Further Mathematics Alongside set compulsory content of prescribed Pure Mathematics topics, there is a choice of studying two modules from Mechanics, Statistics, and Discrete Mathematics. This is assessed by two 1 hour 30 minute exams. Paper 1 in in Pure Mathematics and Paper 2 is a combination of the two chosen applied modules. Year 13 Further Mathematics A combination of Pure Mathematics, and two applied modules from Statistics, Mechanics, and Discretem are studied throughout the year which build upon knowledge acquired in the AS Course. The course is assessed in three 2-hour papers. Paper 1 and Paper 2 assess Pure Mathematics, and Paper 3 assesses a combination of the two chosen applied modules.
