A Level Further Mathematics builds on the work covered in the Maths A Level. It is
recommended to those students who have a passion and a talent for Maths. Four
written exams are taken at the end of the A Level course. There is no coursework
assessment; mock exams are taken throughout both years to ensure that students are
fully prepared for their final assessment.
Further Mathematics must be taken with A Level Mathematics. Students are required
to spend at least one hour a week in the department on self study, where they will be
registered and assistance given.
