Further maths is an advanced addition to A-level maths and therefore they must be studied simultaneously. Students will follow a programme of formal class teaching, supported by appropriate texts and computer software. The AS level (year 1) consists of 3 modules including Module MFP1 - Further Pure 1 This module is approximately 50% of the further pure mathematics in year 1 and includes algebra and graphs, complex numbers, roots and coefficients of quadratic equations, series, calculus, numerical methods, trigonometry and matrices and transformations. Module MFP2 - Further Pure 2 This module is approximately 50% of the further pure mathematics in year 1 and includes roots of polynomials, complex numbers, DeMoivre's theorem, proof by induction, finite series, hyperbolic functions and areas of revolution. Module MS1B (Statistics 1) or Module MM1B (Mechanics 1) must also be studied in the first year. The A2 level comprises of 3 modules including Module MFP3 - Further Pure 3 This module is approximately 50% of the further pure mathematics in year 2 and includes series and limits, polar co-ordinates and differential equations. Module MFP4 - Further Pure 4 This module is approximately 50% of the further pure mathematics in year 2 and includes vectors and 3D geometry, matrix algebra, 3D transformations, solution of linear equations, determinants and linear independence. Modile MS2B (Statistics 2) or Module MM2B (Mechanics 2) must also be studied in the second year.
