      Amended specifications for AS and A Level Further Mathematics A 22 July 2022

      We've corrected minor errors in our specifications and resources for AS and A Level Further Mathematics A (H235/H245) which are listed below:

      AS Level Further Mathematics A (H235) specification

      • On page 71 for Poisson Po (λ) the constant 'e' is shown in italic font. We've corrected this to display in Roman font.

      A Level Further Mathematics A (H245) specification

      • On page 41 for Ref 5.02j we state -x as the index variable. We've corrected this to -λ.
      • On page 112 for Poisson Po (λ) the constant 'e' is shown in italic font. We've corrected this to display in Roman font.

      You can view and download the amended AS Level and A Level specifications from the Further Mathematics A qualification page.

      Resources for Further Mathematics A qualification

      We've also corrected the Poisson Po (λ) error above for the following resources:

      • On page 3 of the AS Level Further Maths A formulae booklet
      • On page 6 of the A Level Further Mathematics A formulae booklet.
      • On page 4 of the A Level Statistics (Y542) student revision checklist

      On page 3 of the AS and A Level Statistics discrete random variables delivery guide (5.02), the 'x!' is shown in Roman font. We've corrected this to display in italic font.

      You can download the formulae booklets and student revision checklist from the Assessment section of the qualification page – the delivery guide is available from the Planning and teaching section. 

      Please make sure you are using the correct versions of these documents with your students.

      If you have any queries about this update please call our Customer Support Centre on 01223 553998 or email support@ocr.org.uk.
