What the college says

Mathematics at A level carries on and expands on the GCSE higher course. You will develop your understanding of pure mathematics; investigating graphs, manipulating algebraic expressions and solving problems using trigonometry as well as exploring brand new ideas such as calculus. You will also get the opportunity to learn about mathematical modelling it’s strengths and limitations. You will also study applied mathematics - learning how to mathematically describe the motion of objects such as a cricket ball flying through the air, or a car driving down the street. Many of the concepts you meet in the mechanics part of the course form an essential introduction for anyone hoping to study engineering, physics, robotics, bio-mechanics or sports science. The course will also allow you to improve how you analyse and compare sets of data through the study of statistics, an essential skill in today’s data-rich world. You will learn robust techniques to examine correlations, make predictions, identify distributions and calculate probabilities.
