The Advanced Subsidiary GCE in Further Maths builds on the skills, knowledge and understanding set out in GCSE Mathematics and in Advanced Subsidiary Mathematics qualifications. Assessments will be designed to reward students for demonstrating the ability to provide responses that draw together different areas of their knowledge, skills and understanding from across the full course of study for the A Level Further Maths qualification. Problem solving, proof and mathematical modelling will be assessed in further Mathematics in the context of the wider knowledge which students taking AS Further Maths will have studied. Units of Study: Core Pure Mathematics • Proof, Complex Numbers, Matrices, Further Algebra and functions, Further calculus, Further vectors. Decision Mathematics 1 and Further Pure Mathematics 1 • Algorithms, Linear Programming, Gantt Charts, Eulerian Graphs, Vector cross product, Conic sections, t - formulae and trigonometric identities and Numerical methods
A minimum of five grade 6s and three grade 5s at GCSE including a grade 8 in GCSE Maths.
The Advanced Subsidiary GCE in Further Maths consists of two externally examined papers. Both papers will be sat at the end of the AS Level. Both papers are 1 hour and 40 minutes in length and contribute 50% each to the overall qualification. The first paper will examine Core Pure and the second paper will examine Decision Mathematics 1 and Further Pure 1.
