A level Further Mathematics is a second full A level so you will spend double the amount of time studying mathematics at sixth form. Students who choose Further Mathematics will be allowed to take this as a fourth A level in place of the EPQ. You will need to complete four examinations to complete your Further Maths A level. You are required to do two ‘further pure’ maths modules plus a choice of one of the four additional modules from: further maths 3 and 4, further mechanics 1 and 2, further statistics 1 and 2 or decision maths 1 and 2. In further pure maths you will encounter new and more recent mathematical developments such as complex numbers, polar coordinates and matrices. You will also explore some of the more philosophical aspects of maths. The statistics and mechanics units will further develop the work from statistics and mechanics you have studied for the A level. Decision maths is about solving real-world problems in an efficient manner. You will learn to optimise resources to maximise profit, plan delivery routes to conserve fuel and organise projects to make the best use of your time.
You will need to have achieved at least a grade 7 in GCSE Mathematics to study A level Further Mathematics. You must also study A level Mathematics in order to choose this subject.
