This is an ongoing class which is designed to provide additional support and practice for Year 12 students who are taking A-Level Maths. The goal is to help students strengthen their understanding of key concepts, improve their problem-solving skills, and build a solid foundation for the A Level. It will primarily focus on the AS Level, Pure content of the curriculum. Through a combination of explained examples, questioning and independent practice, and interactive activities, we aim to make mathematics enjoyable and accessible for all students. Students will have amble opportunities to ask questions throughout the lessons. Students can join the course at any time during the year, however on some weeks it will be helpful for students to complete the pre-task for that week which will be posted on the class page. This is especially important if the student has never studied this topic before. Students will be provided with extra practice and follow up resources between sessions. For students who need extra individual attention, we also offer one-on-one support sessions that can be scheduled upon request.
