What the college says

For any student who shows a keen interest and a strong understanding of Mathematics, Further Mathematics would make an excellent choice. Students studying Further Mathematics will get to experience one of the true beauties of the subject; the relationships between all aspects of Mathematics. Students who opt to take Mathematics and Further Mathematics A Level will focus on completing the majority of Maths A Level topics in Year 12 which allow students to access the Further Maths content with greater depth in Year 13. Students can also have the opportunity to be involved with the wider Mathematic Enrichment of the school. This includes becoming a Maths Prefect, mentoring students in younger years with their maths and running extra-curricular clubs. These clubs and activities are very popular with many students. Clubs that have been run in the past are the Mathematics Society and Countdown Club. Students also create displays and Mathematics based assemblies to celebrate Maths Events such as Global Maths Week or Pi Day.
