At A-Level students embark on a journey linking their prior learning at GCSE and higher level mathematics. Throughout the course students will simultaneously study the pure and applied units, following a carefully tailored scheme of study. Pure mathematics covers the underlying concepts and structures of mathematics, whereas the applied units in both mechanics and statistics allow the students to appreciate mathematics in a more contextualised manner making links to the real world.
How will students be assessed for A Level Mathematics?
Examination board: Edexcel QN: 603/1333/X (9MA0)
