Real life political, economical, environmental and statistical problems will be considered and students will be given the confidence, skills and tools to further their mathematical skills which may enhance their allied A Level studies. This course is suited to students who are motivated and willing to gain Level 3 examination experience a year earlier than their peers.

The course will be taught as two extra hours per week throughout Year 12 (compulsory to attend) and students will sit two 90 minute examinations at the end of Year 12 and receive their qualification on A Level Results Day 2025, giving students the following UCAS points: 20 A, 16 B, 12 C, 8 D, 4 E.
