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. Recognise how a situation may be represented mathematically and understand the relationship between 'real world' problems and mathematical models and how these can be refined and improved Develop an awareness of the relevance of mathematics to other fields of study, to the world of work and to society in general
