What the college says

A Level Mathematics will follow on from several strands of the GCSE curriculum, and develop them further. A key thread throughout the course is algebraic manipulation, reasoning and proof, as well as further work on trigonometrical ratios, geometry and probability. There are also key new elements such as differential calculus, as well as statistical analysis and using Newton's laws to solve physical problems. Learn about algebra and functions, co-ordinate geometry in the xy plane, trigonometry, statistical sampling, interpreting data, further algebra, probability, hypothesis testing, Newton's Laws, exponentials and logarithms, differentiation and kinematics. Building on previous work you will be learn about proof, partial fractions, functions, series, binomial, projectiles, further trigonometry, parametric equations, further differentiation, integration, numerical methods, regression and correlation, probability, moments, 3D vectors, normal distribution, forces and further kinematics.
