What the college says

A Level Mathematics is seen by employers and universities alike as a demanding subject. Mathematics develops the students' mathematical understanding. There are three areas of development. Firstly: Pure Mathematics extends Algebra, Trigonometry, Graphs and introduces Calculus. Secondly: Statistics develops the modelling of the distribution of data and tries to answer questions such as ‘How likely is it for an adult female to be taller than 6 feet?’ and how likely is it for a contestant on ‘Deal or no deal’ to win the big prize? Thirdly: Mechanics models real life physical situations. For example it helps to answer the questions ‘How closely will ships pass each other if they continue on their present course?’ and ‘What forces will be generated when two objects crash into each other?’
