What the college says

Further Mathematics is offered to our most able Mathematicians. The course allows students to study in greater depth many of the areas covered by the A level Mathematics syllabus and is tailored to their requirements. There will be a wide combination of topic modules available to accommodate students strengths in Pure Mathematics, Mechanics, Statistics and Discrete Mathematics. This course can only be taken as a fourth subject, in addition to three main course choices including Mathematics. Students taking Further Mathematics must therefore have shown excellent commitment to their studies, as evidenced by their portfolio of GCSE results.
