In A Level Mathematics students will study pure mathematics, mechanics and statistics. A Level mathematics not only supports students studying. A Level courses in science subjects but also in subjects such as psychology, geography, design & technology and business. The majority of the course is algebra-based, so students must have a good understanding of all the algebra topics taught at GCSE. In A Level Mathematics students will study pure mathematics, mechanics and statistics. Within these areas they will study functions, graphs, algebraic techniques, coordinate geometry, sequences and series, calculus, trigonometry, vectors, mechanical models, kinematics, descriptive statistics and probability.
Students must achieve at least a grade 6 at GCSE mathematics and have been taught the higher tier GCSE syllabus. Students will be required to attend the transition lessons in the summer term of Year 11 and to complete an induction assignment. All students will need to purchase the A Level scientific calculator for the course, text books will be provided.
Assessment is in the form of 3 x 2 hour written exam papers taken at the end of Year 13. Questions will require use of functions on the A Level scientific calculator and knowledge of the large data set. During the course students will complete regular written assessments as well as written homework.
