Students will develop an understanding of mathematics and mathematical processes in a way that promotes confidence and fosters enjoyment. The course includes: Core Mathematics (approximately 67%) This extends GCSE work in algebra, coordinate geometry and trigonometry whilst introducing new ideas and techniques, in abstract mathematical theory. Mechanics (approximately 16%) Including mathematical modelling in which systems of forces are analysed and the motion of bodies is considered. Statistics (approximately 17%) This develops the ideas of probability and statistics met in GCSE mathematics, progressing to the modelling of real-life situations.
