GCE A-level Mathematics offers students with a good understanding of Mathematics the chance to study it at a higher level. It provides a thorough grounding in the mathematical tools and techniques often needed in the workplace. It is suitable for students who wish to enter universities in the UK.
We offer teaching for the following units:
- Core Mathematics Units: C1, C2, C3, C4
- Further Pure Mathematics Units: FP1, FP2, FP3
- Mechanics Units: M1, M2, M3, M4, M5
- Statistics Units: S1, S2, S3, S4
- Decision Mathematics Units: D1, D2
The above units can be used in a variety of combinations so that students can obtain up to three A levels. Core Mathematics units are compulsory. 3 units (including C1, C2) are necessary for an AS award and 6 units for a single A – Level. A combination of 12 distinct units is considered as two separate A Levels.
More specifically:
- Advanced GCE Mathematics:
Core Mathematics units C1, C2, C3 and C4 plus two Applications units from the following six combinations: M1 and M2; S1 and S2; D1 and D2; M1 and S1; S1 and D1; M1 and D1.
- Advanced GCE Pure Mathematics:
Core Mathematics units C1, C2, C3, C4, FP1, and either FP2 or FP3.
- Advanced GCE Further Mathematics:
Further Pure Mathematics units FP1, FP2, FP3 and a further three applications units (excluding C1 – C4) to make a total of six units,
Or,
FP1, either FP2 or FP3 and a further four Applications units (excluding C1 – C4) to make a total of six units.
Students who are awarded certificates in both Advanced GCE Mathematics and Advanced GCE Further Mathematics must use unit results from 12 different teaching modules.
- Additional Qualification in Advanced Further Mathematics (Additional):
Students who complete eighteen units will have achieved the equivalent of the standard of Advanced GCE Further Mathematics (Additional) in their additional units. Such students will be eligible for the award of Advanced GCE Further Mathematics (Additional) in addition to the awards of Advanced GCE Mathematics and Advanced GCE Further Mathematics.
