Maths A level Maths provides you with a thorough grounding in the mathematical tools and techniques that are applicable to multiple mathsfocused roles in the workplace. The modern world needs employers with an advanced level of mathematics skills, and maths is essential to the continued development of our increasingly technological lives. The UK’s knowledge economy (an economical system driven by ideas, intellectual capital and technology) needs more mathematical skills for the financial, communication, engineering and transportation sectors, as well as highly specialised scientific areas, such as genome modelling. A level Maths is made up of six units. There are four core units which make up two-thirds of the qualification and provide you with techniques in algebra, geometry, trigonometry and calculus - forming the fundamental building blocks of the subject. Mathematical applications in statistics, mechanics and decision mathematics make up the remaining third of the qualification.
