Mathematics Department
Mathematics is a core subject and strong competence in this subject is not only an essential part of our everyday lives, it is also expected from most employers and pathways into further education. Success at GCSE Mathematics can allow students to study many other subjects such as Economics, Geography and the Sciences at A level and beyond.
The Mathematics Department gives students the opportunity to study A Level Mathematics, Core Mathematics and Further Mathematics. Maths is a facilitating subject, which means it is more frequently required for entrance to University degrees and, as such, leaves students with a wide array of options when leaving post 18 studies. The study of Mathematics develops a range of logic, problem solving and thinking skills that are transferable to many different subjects and contexts. If you would like to study Mathematics at degree level it is recommended that you also complete a Further Maths A Level.
For detailed information on specifications refer to the Key Stage 4 or Key Stage 5 prospectus. |
