Mathematical Studies

Course summary

Core mathematics has been designed to maintain and develop real- life mathematics skills. What you study is not purely theoretical or abstract; it can be applied on a day-to-day basis in work, study or life and most courses will include a financial mathematics element. It will also help with other A level subjects, in particular with Science, Geography, Business Studies, Psychology and Economics. The skills developed in the study of Mathematics are increasingly important in the workplace and in higher education; studying Core Mathematics will help you keep up these essential skills. Most students who study Mathematics after GCSE improve their career choices and increase their potential earnings.
