Further Maths here at Leventhorpe is a challenging, yet very rewarding A Level. Our top mathematicians thrive on content of this course. Throughout the two years, students study both pure and applied topics. The Pure Maths content complements what students learn in the standard A-level, as well as introducing new concepts, such as matrices and complex numbers. The applied modules are Decision Maths, which covers the mathematics of algorithms and decision-making, and Further Mechanics, which extends ideas from the standard A-level and introduces new topics such as the effects of collisions.
Grade 8 GCSE Mathematics as well as electing to take A Level Mathematics is required
At the end of Year 13, the course is assessed with students sitting four exams, each of which is 1 hour 30 minute long. There are two pure exam papers and two applied papers, each of which contribute 25% of the final grade
