GCE A Level in Mathematics
at Ranelagh School, Bracknell · school or sixth form
What the college says
Students wishing to embark on a Mathematics course in the sixth form should primarily do so because they have an interest in the subject. It is an interesting and challenging course that builds upon many aspects of GCSE study. It is a useful support for other subjects, such as the Sciences or Geography, but it does require a great deal of commitment and a willingness to work independently of the teacher. In addition to pure mathematics topics students will apply the skills learnt to mathematical problems where mechanics or statistics interact with pure mathematics. Students will be encouraged to use technology as a way of understanding and applying mathematics and will benefit from owning a graphical calculator, which we can source for purchase at a group discounted rate in September.
