Pupils will study for 2 qualifications in their Maths lessons and will therefore achieve 2 separate GCSE grades.
These will be GCSE Maths (Numeracy) and GCSE Mathematics.
The Maths (Numeracy) exam will be based on applying the principles of Mathematics to everyday life and will be the Main GCSE qualification required by employers and colleges.
The GCSE Mathematics exam will be focussed on more traditional mathematical principles and will support those pupils intending to study Maths further.
There will also be the option for those pupils who are thinking of studying Maths further to study for the Additional Mathematics qualification to bridge the gap between GCSE Maths and A Level Maths. This will be on a voluntary basis and taught after school.
The qualifications will be exam based and 3 tiers of entry will be available. These are Foundation (Grades D-G) Intermediate (Grades B – E) and Higher tier (Grades A*-C). The level you are entered for will be based on your ability and commitment shown in lessons.
