What the college says

There is a fixed content for AS and A level Mathematics. All students will study a mixture of Pure Mathematics, Mechanics and Statistics. Both AS and A level Mathematics are comprised of two-thirds Pure Mathematics, one-sixth Mechanics and one-sixth Statistics.

What you need to get on

The course is specialised and demanding and therefore a grade 7 in GCSE Mathematics should be regarded as the absolute minimum. For continuation to Year 13 grades in Year 12 Mathematics need to demonstrate potential for A level success.

How you are assessed

Academic subjects, mostly exams, three or four at once. The traditional route to university.

What this level means

The A-level-equivalent step, and what universities and employers ask for.

Is it open to 16 to 18 year olds?

Approved for 16 to 18 study on the government's Section 96 list.
