Mathematics - GCSE

This is a one-year course and covers the four main areas of mathematics: algebra, geometry and probability; number; measure and statistics.

This GCSE is one of two mathematics based GCSEs (the other being GCSE Mathematics-Numeracy) and it may be studied with or without GCSE Mathematics-Numeracy.  GCSE Mathematics has all the content of GCSE Mathematics–Numeracy with additional content in the areas of algebra, geometry and probability.

Full-time students should take this subject alongside three or four other subjects as part of the GCSE programme or other full-time course of study.

There are two exams in June, one with a calculator and one without.
