The National Curriculum is built on to lay down foundations for advanced work on calculus, trigonometry, co - ordinate geometry and algebra. Plus one of the following: Statistics 1 (S1) - introduces statistical techniques to analyse data, building on the National Curriculum. Topics covered are exploring data, sampling and hypothesis testing with the binomial distribution. Mechanics 1 (M1) - introduces the concept of mathematical modelling in applications involving forces, Newton's laws of motion and projectiles. Course Content: A2 Level Methods for Advanced Mathematics, continues the development of algebraic and calculus ideas. (C3) Applications of Advanced Mathematics, (C4) - develops topics started in C1 and C2 and introduces ideas of proof, functions and numerical methods, and extends the use of calculus. Further techniques in algebra, trigonometry and integration are introduced. Vector geometry, parametric equations and differential equations are added. Further techniques in algebra, trigonometry and integration are introduced. Vector geometry, parametric equations and differential equations are added. Decision Mathematics 1 (D1) - introduces algorithms in a variety of contexts to solve real world problems, progressing to critical path analysis, linear programming and simulation.
