A-LEVEL
Love detective novels and solving puzzles? It all adds up to your perfect partnership with Further Maths.
There’s no greater feeling than unpacking a cryptic riddle. And that’s exactly what you’ll be doing the whole time you’re on this course, which serves as the perfect introduction to thinking like an engineer, programmer and scientist.
If you’ve barely scratched the surface when it comes to the intricacies of algorithms or advanced geometry, you’re in for a treat.
We’ll start you off gently. We say gently – it’s no cakewalk. You’ll be properly taxed, but you’ll be learning in the company of other great maths minds.
Watch the live lesson below for a sense of what it’s like studying Further Maths at Xaverian. If you’ve got a career in mind involving complex equations, we figure this is your perfect jumping-off point to a degree that will add value to your life and employability.
Matrices are rectangular arrays of information commonly used to compute across such diverse fields as science, engineering, programming, robotics and genetics.
Among their many uses are scrambling data and solving complex systems of simultaneous equations.
Today you’ll also learn how to use matrices for transforming objects in coordinate geometry.
This might seem a little daunting. But every A-level is about stretching yourself. And you’ll be amazed how quickly you adapt to new models of thinking when you’ve got a real passion for numbers.
Today’s lesson is a lively quarter-hour jam-packed with analytical approaches to complex questions. This testing, but wholly fulfilling, course may make Only Connect look like Catchphrase – but it’ll provide everything you need to be ready for university and a rewarding career deciphering data.
Due to the complex nature of your studies, you can look forward to a rewarding career in both financial and cerebral senses.
Many of our students progress to Engineering or Science-related degrees.
Maths is the foundation for all Science pathways. Physics is popular, as is its closest cousin, Chemistry. Biology, too, asks complex modelling questions of its undergraduate students.
After your Further Maths A-level you might wish to continue exploring the deepest reaches of this incredible subject, specialising in such diverse areas as Operational research and Statistics.
Further Maths students regularly progress from Xaverian to some of the country’s best universities.
And while you’re here, from the endless opportunities for enrichment to our Extended Project Qualification, you’ll develop both academically and recreationally.
Students demonstrating academic excellence and a commitment to achieving the highest grades can access a range of support from our Careers Team to help you get into some of the best universities.
