A Level Mathematics involves developing skills in algebra, geometry, statistics and mechanics which are then applied to a wide variety of abstract and real-life situations. In Year 12 you will study pure mathematics, statistics and mechanics. You will stretch your knowledge of number and algebra to learn topics such as calculus and series. You will learn to add up an infinite number of numbers and use integration to work out the area of shapes. In Year 13 you will develop your pure maths knowledge to understand proof, logarithms and vectors. You will learn new trigonometric functions and proofs and also learn to apply your knowledge of calculus to work out the volume of shapes.
- In addition to the general entry requirements you will need a Grade 6.5 in Mathematics (Higher Tier). General Entry Requirements - 5 GCSE passes at Grades 9-5 - At least Grade 4 in Mathematics - At least Grade 5 in English Language and English Literature
Assessment for internal exams Paper 1: Pure Mathematics. 2 hours, 100 marks. Paper 2: Statistics and Mechanics. 1 hour 15 minutes, 60 marks. Section A: Statistics, 30 marks. Section B: Mechanics, 30 marks. Please note that there is no optional content, and there will be assessment of problem solving, proof and modelling, as well as pre-release of a large data set. NB: You will not be entered into the AS exam. Assessment at the end of Year 13: Paper 1: Pure Mathematics 1. 2 hours, 100 marks. Paper 2: Pure Mathematics 2. 2 hours, 100 marks. Paper 3: Statistics and Mechanics. 2 hours, 100 marks. Section A: Statistics, 50 marks. Section B: Mechanics, 50 marks.
