Further Mathematics A level Edexcel

Course entry requirements: Grade 7/8/9 at GCSE Mathematics

OVERVIEW OF COURSE:

Further Maths students begin to appreciate the connection between different branches of Mathematics and put forth rigorous mathematical arguments using formal proof. They continue to develop their core skills, with a wider range of strategies and techniques, whilst broadening and deepening their applications to real life situations.  We use a variety of approaches: teacher led explanations, modelling good practice, questioning, individual work, interactive games and peer demonstrations.

COURSE DETAILS AND ASSESSMENT INFORMATION:

The topics covered in further mathematics build on those covered in A-level mathematics. Students will study further pure topics and develop their understanding of statistics and mechanics further.

WHERE CAN THIS COURSE TAKE ME?

Both Mathematics and Engineering courses at university value Further Maths A-level very highly and it gives students a head start to their undergraduate studies. Students are provided with information about a wide range of off-site enrichment opportunities and encouraged to participate in these to enhance their CV.
