Mathematics is one of the fundamental building blocks of the universe and is used to describe nearly everything within it. Study at A Level enables students to explore the world of Mathematics in greater depth, looking at Mathematics, both for its own sake, and its applications in the real world. The course is split into two areas - Core Mathematics and Applied Mathematics. Core Mathematics looks at what Maths is all about, including the rules and patterns that everything is built upon, and consists of four units. Applied Mathematics looks at how Maths can be applied to real situations, in particular the use of data (Statistics) and motion of objects (Mechanics). Students will study: · Pure Mathematics including Proof; Algebra and Functions; Coordinate Geometry in the (x,y); Sequences and Series; Trigonometry; Exponentials and Logarithms; Differentiation; Integration; Numerical Methods. · Probability and Statistics - Statistical Sampling; Data Presentation and Interpretation; Probability; Statistical Distributions; Statistical Hypothesis Testing. · Mechanics 1 - Quantities and Units in Mechanics; Kinematics; Forces and Newton’s Laws; Moments.
Grade 7 in GCSE Maths.
The course is assessed externally and is 100% exam. At the end of Year 13 there are three exams: Paper 1 Pure Maths 2 hours Paper 2 Pure Maths 2 hours Paper 3 Applied Maths (Mechanics and Statistics) 2 hours
