    This is a collection of activities and resources that will help you keep up to date with your maths knowledge and prepare you for the start of your A-Level in maths.

    The course is designed for you start at the top of the page and work down through the sections.  Each section should take you approximately 4 hours.

    We have tried to pick out topics and thinking skills that are important when you study A-Level maths.

    Below we have added a link to collection of weekly resources full of activities including problem solving which have been designed to develop the knowledge and skills you will need for A-Level Maths.

  • Level 2 Further Maths

    One of the best preparations you can do for A-Level Maths is to be up to date with the Level 2 Further Maths content.

    This can be achieved by completing past papers and using Corbett Maths videos and worksheets.

    Below is a link to the Corbett Maths webpage, Mrs Walker provided her group with some past papers these are also available at the link below including some video solutions.

  • Trigonometry

    Trigonometry is a large proportion of A-Level Maths and it is important you have mastered the topic at GCSE.

    Below there are a selection of resources explaining the content you need to know and then worksheets of questions you need to be able to answer.

  • Surds and Indices

    A-Level Maths is about precision and Surds are used extensively in calculations and answers.  You need to be able to manipulate them.

    A-Level Maths involves a lot of manipulating expressions and you need to be able to interpret and work with indices throughout the course.
