Studying Mathematics and Further Mathematics: (i) Enables students to acquire knowledge and skills with confidence, satisfaction and enjoyment. (ii) Gives students experience of developing resourcefulness in solving problems. (iii) Enables students to apply mathematics and recognise its significance to other disciplines. (iv)Develops students’ understanding of mathematical reasoning. (v) Provides students with a foundation for the further study of mathematics. A Level Further Mathematics • Moments • Statistical hypothesis testing • Statistical distributions • Proof • Algebra and functions • Coordinate geometry • Sequences and series • Trigonometry • Data presentation and interpretation A Level Further Mathematics builds on the Mathematics syllabus. All students will study the compulsory Core Pure mathematical content outlined below, and will also study modules in Further Pure mathematics and Decision mathematics. Core Content for A Level Further Mathematics • Proof • Complex numbers • Matrices • Further algebra and functions • Further vectors • Polar coordinates • Hyperbolic functions • Differential equations Future Prospects Mathematics is a multi-faceted subject and has many transferable skills. Math's is listed as either essential or desirable for many degree courses including: mathematical courses (math's, engineering), science-based courses (biology, chemistry, physics, biochemistry, natural sciences), medical courses (medicine, veterinary sciences, dentistry, biomedical sciences, physiotherapy), business courses (economics, business, management), courses that require reasoning or logic (philosophy, computer science) and courses that use statistics (geography, psychology).
Students with at least five GCSE passes at grades 5-9, including a grade 5 in English Language and a grade 4 in Mathematics, will be accepted onto an A Level study program. Specific Entry Requirements: Students wishing to take Further Mathematics are expected to have grade 8 in GCSE Mathematic.
Students will be assessed by external examination papers which occur at the end of Year 13. All examinations allow the use of a calculator and we expect all students to use the Casio FX-GGIEX Glasswiz Model. Students must be able to also demonstrate the following overarching knowledge and skills: mathematical argument, language and proof; mathematical problem solving; and mathematical modelling.
