The content of A Level Mathematics will include topics from Pure Mathematics, Statistics and Mechanics: Pure Mathematics provides the algebraic skills and techniques you need in order to solve mathematical problems. The topics studied are: ● Proof ● Algebra and Functions ● Coordinate Geometry in the (x, y) plane ● Sequences and Series ● Trigonometry ● Exponentials and logarithms ● Differentiation ● Integration ● Numerical Methods ● Vectors Statistics also models situations mathematically and is used to solve real-life problems through numerical analysis and applications of probability theory. The topics studied are: ● Statistical sampling ● Data presentation and interpretation ● Probability ● Statistical Distributions ● Statistical hypothesis testing Mechanics has some links with Physics and looks at the physical world – how objects move and the forces that act upon them. Real-life situations are modelled mathematically and problems are solved through application of the algebraic techniques from pure maths. The topics studied are: ● Quantities and units in Mechanics ● Kinematics ● Forces and Newton’s laws ● Moments
40 points in their 9 best GCSE subjects or equivalent qualifications. (Where 9 subjects have not been studied, the school reserves the right to consider entry; this will be dependent on actual exam results, not predictions, and students must still achieve the minimum individual subject requirements.) A minimum of 2 grade 6s in GCSE subjects or grades of the same standard in equivalent qualifications. Grade 6 in GCSE Mathematics (Grade 7 recommended).
Students will be assessed on three, two-hour papers at the end of Year 13. The use of calculators is permitted for all three papers. Paper 1 assesses only pure content. Paper 2 assesses pure and mechanics content. Paper 3 assesses pure and statistics content.
