Mathematics

Course summary

We follow the Edexcel AS Mathematics course and study three modules, C1, C2 and S1 which are each assessed by a 90 minute exam in May. After the AS exams, we commence the A2 course and cover most of C3 over June/ July TERM 1 Surds Quadratic Functions Equation solving and inequalities Curve Sketching Co ordinate Geometry Sequences and Series Differentiation Integration S1 Probability Discrete random variables Normal distribution Correlation Regressio Modelling Measures of location Measures of dispersion TERM 2 S1 Representation of data Integration Differentiation Integration/ Differentiation test Algebra and functions Sine and Cosine Rule Exponentials and Logs Coordinate Geometry Binomial Expansion Radian measure Geometric Sequences Trigonometric Graphs Trig Identities Practice paper revision TERM 3 Preparation/revision for AS exams After AS levels, start A2 course: Algebraic fractions Functions Exponentials and Logs Numerical methods Transformations of graphs Differentiation
