Those who have sat and wondered why certain things work rather than simply accepting formulas at face value. Those who need to know some of the more complex and interesting proofs. Those who want to follow in the footsteps of Newton, Einstein & Hawking. Those who want to know what the other two cube roots of 1 are. Only the most passionate Mathematicians need apply. Further Pure - much greater depth of Core topics such as Trigonometry and Calculus proof will be studied along with fascinating new topics including complex numbers, matrices, parabolas, ellipses and hyperbolas. Extrovert Maths at its best. Decision - a relatively new area which deals with issues of network problems, shortest route, sorting algorithms, critical path analysis amongst others. Want to know how a basic Sat Nav works? Further Mechanics - take the already amazing world of Mechanics and move it up a couple of gears. Study collisions, impulse, relative velocity and projectiles on inclined planes. Serves as a quality introduction to the world of ballistics, dimensional analysis and the coefficient of restitution (bouncing). Next stop - CSI Dinnington.
