Course summary

Our mission as a department is to ‘Build Resilient Problem Solvers’ and we continue to explore this through A Level Mathematics. The course requires a skillset of algebraic fluency, IT competency, graphical construction, and a level of literacy that includes comprehension and vocabulary specific to mathematics. While these will be grown throughout the two years, it is most important that students wishing to take A Level Mathematics show tenacity when solving problems and a rigorous attention to detail if they are to succeed and achieve well.
