Mathematics (Further)

Course summary

Year 12 This year will build on the foundations of maths knowledge and skills gained in Key Stage 4. Students will be introduced to calculus and additional algebraic methods, as well as studying constant and variable acceleration and probability. All students will gain a secure grounding in the key concepts of Pure Maths, Statistics, and Mechanics which underpin their future learning in Year 13, and are crucial to more complex concepts. Students studying Further Maths will take this further by studying more intricate methods of algebraic reasoning and proof, as well as the study of Mechanics and Statistics. Year 13 This year will extend the work done by students in Year 12. All students will consolidate and develop knowledge and understanding of the additional key concepts of Pure Maths, Statistics, and Mechanics which underpin the application of Maths at A Level, whilst preparing students for higher-level and undergraduate study. Students of Further Maths will also have the opportunity to study additional modules such as Modelling with Algorithms or Further Pure.
