Further Maths

Course summary

In this course you will complete more units from the GCE (A-Level) in Mathematics, leading to an additional A-Level qualification in Further Maths. The course is designed to be taught alongside A-Level Mathematics and consists of two compulsory Core Pure Maths units (CP1 & CP2) and two more optional units. There is a degree of flexibility with the optional units to be studied, and this is to be decided in conjunction with teachers. This year we are teaching the FS1 (Further Statistics) and FM1 (Further Mechanics) units. Many students who take a qualification in Further Maths go on to read Mathematics at university and perhaps then become professional mathematicians. Most, however, are taking Mathematics as a support subject for a wide variety of fields including financial services and medicine.
