Maths (Further) - A Level (2 Yrs)
at Barton Peveril Sixth Form College, Eastleigh · sixth form college
What the college says
This course is taken in addition to Mathematics and is for those that both enjoy and are good at the subject. Although the content ranks among the hardest A Level courses, it is recognised that its similarity to single Mathematics makes the course a common fourth or even fifth option for strong students. Further Mathematics will both broaden and deepen a student's understanding of mathematics and covers some key mathematical concepts that are not part of the single Mathematics A Level. As students will be keen mathematicians there is also some scope for looking a little beyond the specification. Further Mathematics is a hugely rewarding yet very challenging course that requires organisation and dedication. Many of the key concepts studied, such as matrices and complex numbers, are integral to a deeper understanding of mathematics and its modern uses.
