Maths

Pure Mathematics - Builds the foundation for advanced mathematical thinking and problem-solving.

Proof, Algebra, Functions and Graphs, Coordinate Geometry, Sequences and Series, Trigonometry, Differentiation, Integration, Numerical Methods and Vectors.

Statistics - Focuses on interpreting and analysing data to support evidence-based decision-making.

Statistical Sampling, Data Presentation and Interpretation, Probability, Statistical Distributions, Statistical Hypothesis Testing and Interpreting a Large Data Set.

Mechanics - Applies mathematical principles to physical systems, ideal for students interested in physics or engineering.

Quantities and Units in Mechanics, Kinematics, Forces and Motion, Newton’s Laws and Moments.

The full A-level qualification is assessed through three exam papers, each lasting 2 hours and worth 100 marks.

Paper 1: Pure Mathematics 1

Paper 2: Pure Mathematics 2

• Assess the same Pure content areas, but with different questions and combinations

Paper 3: Statistics and Mechanics

• The large data set for statistics is released in advance and should be studied thoroughly.

All exam papers are calculator-allowed, each contributes one-third of your final grade, and a formulae booklet is provided during the exam to support your working.

Senior Mathematics Challenges (Individual & Team)

Take part in nationally recognised competitions that test your problem-solving skills, logical reasoning, and mathematical creativity. These challenges offer:

• Individual and Team Challenges.

• Participation can lead to certificates, awards, and even invitations to prestigious follow-on rounds.

Maths Partner Programme (Year 12)

Become a mentor to a Year 11 student preparing for their GCSE Maths exams. As a Maths Partner, you will:

• Provide one-on-one support and guidance during revision sessions.

• Reinforce your own mathematical understanding by teaching key concepts.

• Develop leadership, communication, and empathy—skills that are valuable beyond the classroom.

• Make a meaningful impact on someone else's academic journey.

Maths Society

Join a vibrant community of students passionate about mathematics. As a member—or even a student leader—you can:

• Explore advanced topics beyond the curriculum, such as game theory, cryptography, or mathematical paradoxes.

• Organise talks, workshops, and themed events to inspire curiosity and deeper learning.

• Connect with guest speakers from universities and industry to gain insight into mathematical careers.
