This course aims to develop a deeper understanding of some of the most important topics in mathematics which play a crucial role in the world around us, in everything from technology to our understanding of the universe. The course builds upon existing knowledge as well as introducing completely new and challenging topics.
Objectives of the A' Level Mathematics(Full AS+A2)
The objective of the course is to:
help students to gain knowledge and understanding of Mathematics direct study of the original sources
encourage and develop your enthusiasm for maths as well as give you the chance to form your own personal responses to the set texts chosen for study.
help you to further and enhance your mathematics and evaluative skills such as geometry and algebra and other additional tools to like the mechanics based questions, to use with the kinematic equations.
