Our offer for AS and A Level Further Mathematics A

Our specification makes it clear where to pitch the subject content. Content is arranged in two columns showing the split clearly between the initial AS content and the A Level only content, so you’ll know exactly how to cover the content at the right level before moving on to more difficult areas. The Maths and Further Maths specifications use the same content reference system to support those students following both courses.

Accessibility is key when writing our exam papers. The wording and layout of our questions papers are designed to ensure all students access the maths in the questions.

Defined command words make clear how much written working is needed to justify answers.

Separate question and answer booklets allow students to see the whole question and all parts of their solution without the distraction of turning pages when working through extended response problems.

There are no non-calculator questions. Our defined command words make clear how much written working is needed to justify answers. See our command word poster for classroom display and as a student guide.

Timetabling considerations. Options are timetabled on different days to avoid clashes to ensure no specific combination will be disadvantaged. All papers are 1 hour 30 minutes and each worth 75 marks for ease of assessment.
