What the college says

The skills developed through the study of maths are in high demand from employers and universities. In addition to developing the ability to solve problems and think logically, the study of maths provides opportunities to develop team working skills, resilience, effective communication of complex ideas and the ability to use your own initiative. Core Maths is a level 3 qualification, equivalent in size to an AS Level qualification. It is designed for students who have passed GCSE Maths at grade 5 and above and who want to keep their valuable maths skills up to date in preparation for employment or university, but who are not planning on studying AS/A Level Mathematics. Core Maths attracts up to 20 UCAS points, which can help to achieve the entry requirements for entry to an undergraduate degree course.
