Mathematics (Further)

Course summary

A Level Further Mathematics is studied in conjunction with A-Level Mathematics. Students will have the opportunity to discover new areas of Mathematics whilst developing a more in-depth understanding of concepts covered in the standard Mathematics A-Level course. Students will study Further Pure Mathematics ideas and modules covering Further Mechanics, Statistics, modelling of algorithms and numerical methods. Problem solving and Mathematical reasoning will feature prominently throughout this course. The Further Mathematics A level is divided into Pure Mathematics and a choice of additional options from statistics, mechanics, modelling with algorithms, numerical methods, extra Pure Mathematics and Pure Mathematics with technology. The course will focus heavily on the problem solving aspect of Mathematics, with mathematical reasoning being used alongside new techniques to solve questions in context.
