This course is for A Level Mathematics for those students who are also studying Further Maths A-Level Mathematics at Leventhorpe is an exciting and rewarding course that can open many doors for exciting higher education and career opportunities. Early on in Year 12 we offer a trip to London, where students hear from leading mathematicians discussing how maths is used in the real world, and often - not always where you think. Our two-year course consists of Pure Maths and Applied Maths in the ratio of 2:1, with the applied content covering Statistics and Mechanics. All three strands (Pure, Statistics and Mechanics) are taught throughout Year 12 and 13. Our Pure Maths content builds on topics and skills taught in GCSE with particular emphasis on algebra, geometry and trigonometry, as well as introducing the very important strand of calculus. Statistics focuses on probability, statistical graphs, measures of central tendency, and probability distributions, with Mechanics being the study of how things work in the real world by looking at forces, moments, speed and acceleration.
Grade 8 GCSE Maths
At the end of Year 13, the course is assessed with students sitting three exams. Papers 1 and 2 are both Pure mathematics, with content from both Year 12 and Year 13, while paper 3 is the applied content of Mechanics and Statistics. All three papers are equally weighted and each exam is two hours long
