What the college says

The A Level mathematics course is designed to develop students' mathematical thinking, problem-solving abilities, and mathematical communication skills. It emphasises how mathematical ideas are inter-connected and teaches students to apply these ideas to model practical situations. The course places a strong emphasis on logical reasoning and problem solving. A significant portion of the A Level mathematics course is devoted to pure mathematics, which covers fundamental topics such as algebra, calculus, trigonometry, and coordinate geometry. All students also study statistics and mechanics. Statistics develops the skills required to interpret rel data presented in summary or graphical form and helps us draw conclusions about what the data shows. Mechanics allows us to describe and make predictions about how physical objects move and interact with each other involving ideas such as velocity, acceleration, force and mass which are central to understanding how the world works.
