Course summary

Maths is a universal part of human culture. It is the tool and language of commerce, engineering and other sciences – physics, computing, biology etc. It helps us recognise patterns and to understand the world around us. As society becomes more technically dependent, there will be an increasing requirement for people with a high level of mathematical training. Analytical and quantitative skills are sought by a wide range of employers. An A Level in mathematics provides you with a broad range of skills in problem solving, logical reasoning and flexible thinking. A Level Mathematics student will learn two Pure Mathematics units (Year 1 and Year 2) as well as two applied units combining Statistics and Mechanics in each unit (Year 1 and Year2). The two Pure Mathematics papers will test any materials covered in either Year 1 or Year 2 with same applying for the Statistics and Mechanics papers. The aim of this specification is not only to make our mathematicians fluent in the use of a wide range of mathematical skills but also to be able to apply these skills in a wide variety of ways through rigorous problem solving tasks. Why You Should Consider This Course? Having successfully completed your GCSE course in mathematics at grade 7 or above, you are now in a position to tackle Mathematics at a more advanced level. This is a highly regarded and enjoyable A-Level. Keen GCSE students will find A-Level Maths an even more stimulating and rewarding course. We can guarantee that every student will receive first class tuition using a variety of teaching strategies. This coupled with our excellent support program makes The Warren School an excellent place to study Mathematics.
