Students who enjoy puzzles and problem solving will relish the challenges of this course. The ancient arts of algebra and trigonometry form a large part of what is studied, but students will also learn about the more recent applied mathematics of Statistics and Mechanics. Students continue to develop abilities in Algebra, Geometry and Trigonometry as well as learning about new techniques and concepts. The ancient arts of algebra and trigonometry form a large part of what is studied, but students will also learn about the more recent applied mathematics of Statistics and Mechanics. Students continue to develop abilities in Algebra, Geometry and Trigonometry as well as learning about new techniques and concepts. Studying Mathematics is a distinct advantage for those considering studying related subjects at university. In addition, top universities prefer or require it for mathematics-rich courses such as Engineering, Computing, Chemistry, Accountancy, Economics and Physics. It also demonstrates to potential employers that you have a distinct talent for the application of number in many guises & implies a level of critical thinking & problem solving that is advanced & well-rounded.
5 GCSEs at grade 5 or above. Students must have achieved a high grade 6 or above in Maths and a 5 in English.
A Level Mathematics is a two year course with all exams taking place at the end of the second year. Students sit 3 papers, each lasting for 2 hours and each worth one third of the overall grade. Papers 1 and 2 are entirely pure mathematics, and the third paper is combined statistics and mechanics.
