AQA Certificate Level 3 Mathematical Studies

UPDATED 20151123 16:25:01

Core Maths is a Level 3 Maths course for students in post 16 education who have passed GCSE Mathematics at grade C or above but are not taking A Level Mathematics. The aim is for students to retain, deepen and extend their mathematical understanding through solving meaningful and relevant problems. In this new era, Maths is emerging as crucial to being successful in the new economy. It is estimated that 57% of future careers for present 16 year olds will relate to Science Technology and Maths qualifications. As technology is changing the requirements of the workforce shift so employers need people that are confident problem solvers and numerically fluent. This course is different and sets out to use a problem solving approach to teach applied areas such as: data handling (relevant to Geography, Psychology, History, Business and Economics and Sciences); Decision Maths (relevant to many business related subjects and computing) and personal finance. This course will give you confidence with numerical techniques required at degree level or in employment and can be studied over 1 or 2 years.
