Mathematics A Level

Mathematics is not only a beautiful and exciting subject in its own right, but it also underpins many other branches of learning. It has been fundamental to the development of the society in which we live.

Mathematics can be divided into two areas: at its heart lies Pure Mathematics, which in the main is concerned with Algebra and Geometry; and Applied Mathematics which, as the name implies, applies techniques in Pure Mathematics to solve problems in the world around us.

A Level Maths

What does the course involve?

This is a traditional Mathematics course. It builds on your understanding of Algebra and Geometry and introduces you to new and important concepts such as calculus, which helps explain how the world changes with time.

You will study both Pure and Applied Mathematics. The course culminates in three examination papers, two of which will be on Pure Mathematics and one on Applied Mathematics.  The Applied Mathematics paper is made up of 50% Stastistics and 50% Mechanics, both of which focus on using Mathematics in real world situations.

Trips

There are no compulsory visits but occasionally there are opportunities for visits or lectures by visiting speakers.

What you can do after the course?

Mathematicians are highly valued and well placed when it comes to finding employment.

Openings exist in industry, banking and finance as well as management.

Mathematics A Level courses are particularly useful for people hoping to study engineering, the natural sciences or physics at university.
