We have focused on the breadth and depth of the content to cover fundamental mathematical  \nknowledge and preparing students for the demands of the next stage of learning, if they choose to progress to further study.  \nChanges to content  \nWe have updated the content in response to changes to our other Upper Secondary Mathematics qualifications as follows:  \n• removed Indices and Surds, which will be assumed knowledge  \n• added a new topic: Geometry of a Circle  \n• renamed Calculus as Differentiation and Integration. There are no other major changes to the content. We have updated the Notes/Examples column, clarifying the depth of teaching and learning required for each  \nlearning outcome.  \nWe have updated the aims and assessment objectives. The wording has been updated but the meaning is the same. The new syllabus will also include details of how it helps students develop theCambridge learner attributes – confident, responsible, reflective, innovative and engaged.  \nWe are using consistent learning objectives where appropriate across our Cambridge Upper Secondary Mathematics syllabuses to support teachers who deliver more than one course within the suite.  \nWe have added:  \n• A new topic: Geometry of a Circle.  \nWe have removed:  \n• Indices and Surds, which will be assumed knowledge.  \nCambridge O Level Mathematics – Additional (4037)  \nCambridge O Level Mathematics – Additional (4037)  \nChanges to assessment  \nWe have introduced a non-calculator paper:  \nPaper 1 will be a non-calculator paper. Paper 2 will continue to assess calculator skills.  \nHow does this affect teaching?  \n• The teaching time is not affected by these changes.  \n• Learners will need to practise solving problems and showing their working without a calculator.  \n• The new topic Geometry of a Circle needs to be included in planning.  \n• Make sure students are familiar with working with surds and indices, as these will now be assumed knowledge.  \n• Teachers should use the additional guidance in the new ‘Notes/Examples’ column in the syllabus content.  \nResource Plus  \nResource Plus for Cambridge IGCSE™ Mathematics (0580) is already available through the School Support Hub.
