In Key Stage 5 we offer A-level courses in Mathematics and Further Mathematics. These both involve mathematical methods which lead to real life problem solving and modelling of situations. We have chosen our Specification for its emphasis on applying mathematics to real life situations. The course also enables us to cherish mathematics and its inherent beauty. Many of our pupils excel in mathematics. We often have a high proportion of those who do Higher Tier GCSE going on to do A-level mathematics. Our students’ grades are outstanding putting us in the top 25% of institutions offering A-level for student progress. We also have a small group of students who take Further Mathematics each year. At least half of these go on to study Mathematics at University.
· A-level Mathematics is assessed by three 2-hour examinations. · There is no coursework option. · In the first year of the A-level, students will study mainly Pure Mathematics and a few concepts from Mechanics and Statistics. This content covers all of the AS Mathematics programme of study. · The second year consists of more Pure Mathematics and a little more Mechanics and Statistics. · The work covered over the two years is the whole content of A-level Mathematics.
