Objectives of the A'Level Pure Mathematics (Full AS/A2) course

The objectives of this subject are for the student to:

develop their understanding of mathematics and mathematical processes in a way that promotes confidence and fosters enjoyment;
develop abilities to reason logically and recognise incorrect reasoning, to generalise and to construct mathematical proofs;
extend their range of mathematical skills and techniques and use them in more difficult unstructured problems;
develop an understanding of coherence and progression in mathematics and of how different areas of mathematics can be connected;
recognise how a situation may be represented mathematically and understand the relationship between ‘real world’ problems and standard and other mathematical models and how these can be refined and improved;
use mathematics as an effective means of communication;
read and comprehend mathematical arguments and articles concerning applications of mathematics;
acquire the skills needed to use technology such as calculators and computers effectively, recognise when such use may be inappropriate and be aware of limitations;
develop an awareness of the relevance of mathematics to other fields of study, to the world of work and to society in general;
take increasing responsibility for their own learning and the evaluation of their own mathematical development.
