Further Maths is a course that not only requires a great deal of application but also a real desire to study some challenging mathematics. It is held in very high regard by all universities and can prove to be a great differentiator when applying to the most prestigious ones. What you will study: Further Maths students complete 6 additional modules Core Pure 1&2 - Complex numbers, Argand diagrams, Series, Roots of Polynomials, Volumes of revolution, Proof, Matrices and Linear transformations, Vectors, Number theory, Recurrence relations, Integration techniques. Further Statistics 1 - Discrete Random variables, Poisson distributions, Binomial distributions, Central limit Theorem ,Hypothesis testing. Decision Maths 1- Algorithms, Graphs and Networks, Route inspection, Linear programming, Critical Path analysis. Skills you will gain: A broad exposure to extended problem solving. This is the primary skill that the best universities are looking for in their undergraduate mathematicians and we focus on it when dealing with the different topics on the course. Career Paths: Students who are considering taking degrees with a significant mathematical content, such as engineering, software development and any of the sciences will benefit greatly from taking Further Maths. Employers are looking for people who can think logically, analyses any situation rigorously and then make rational decisions Please note: Further Maths can only be taken by students also studying A level mathematics. Complementary subjects include Physics and Computer Science. Anyone thinking of making a string Oxbridge application in a STEM subject will need to study Further Mathematics.
GCSE Maths Grade 8 GCSE Statistics/Additional or Advanced Maths Grade 7 NOTE: Expectation of an additional maths course
There will be an internal assessment at the end of Year 12. Students must pass this in order to continue to Year 13. Students are assessed by 4 examinations at the end of Year 13. Each of these will be two hours long. Paper 1 and 2 will contain only pure maths content. Paper 3 and 4 will focus on the mechanics and decision maths work studied.
