It lists core topics including differentiation, coordinate geometry, exponentials and logs, trigonometry, probability and discrete distributions, mechanics, integration, hypothesis testing, variable acceleration, and proof, then advances to further integration, differential equations, vectors, binomial expansion, numerical methods, normal distributions, and projectile mechanics. Assessment structures include baseline and formal checks plus mock papers and external exams, with clear at-home independent study actions.","Year 12 AS/Year 1 Curriculum Overview:  \nMathematics (Edexcel)  \n7) Differentiation  \n8) Coordinate Geometry  \n9) Exponentials and Logs  \n10) Trigonometry  \n11) Statistics – Probability  \n12) Mechanics-Forces  \n13) Integration  \n14) Statistics – Hypothesis Testing  \n15) Variable Acceleration  \n16) Proof  \n• Differentiation from first principles  \n• Differentiating functions in the form 􀝔 􀯡  \n• Exponentials including modelling  \n• Laws of logs and solving equations  \n• Trigonometric identities and equations  \n• Probability  \n• Discrete Distributions  \n• Newtons laws of motion  \n• Problem Solving  \n• Integrating functions of the form 􀝔 􀯡  \n• Hypothesis Testing of the Binomial Distribution  \n• Variable acceleration  \n• Forming proof  \n• Disproof by counter example  \n• Problem Solving  \nWhat will you be assessed on?  \nHow can you help at home?  \nBaseline assessment in September to highlight areas from GCSE which need focus.  \nFormal assessments at the end of half term 1 and 2. One will be skills based and the other will be problem solving.  \nTwo further formals towards the end of each half term. Each assessment will include a skills check and problem solving.  \nExternal AS examinations are sat in May for those students not wanting to continue with Maths to A Level.  \nSummer assessments will assess the full content of the AS course. These will beset using past exam questions.  \nEncourage students to become independent learners. We will provide a skills breakdown following each assessment. Students are required to select their own weak areas and dedicate independent learning time to improve these skills. At this point they should be working through the exercisesand mixed exercises from the textbook or integral.  \nEncourage independent study. Students find the application of skills learnt to problem solving the most challenging part of the course. Working through a range of questions, without using a mark scheme as a prompt, is beneficial. When stuck, encourage students to come to maths support where we can talk through the thought process required.  \nEncourage independent study. Students should be working through past exam papers and using the mark schemes after they have completed questions seeking help from maths support to help develop understanding and problem-solving skills. Where students are finding a topic challenging, we would recommend returning to the exercise in the textbook before attempting exam questions again.  \nYear 13 Curriculum Overview:  \nMathematics (Edexcel)  \n8) Futher Integration  \n9) Differentiatial Equations  \n10) Vectors  \n11) Binomial Expansion  \n12) Numerical Methods  \n13) Statistics – Normal Distributions  \n14) Mechanics – Projectiles  \n15) Mechanics – Further Kinematics  \n16) Recap and Revision  \n\n|  | Powerful Knowledge (key concepts, skills) |  |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| • Series notation and iterative process |  |  |\n| • Arithmetic Series, Geometric Series |  |  |\n| • Proof by Contradiction |  |  |\n| • Partial Fractions |  |  |\n| • Range, domain and transformations of functions |  |  |\n| • Modulus Function |  |  |\n| • Reciprocal trig functions and identities |  |  |\n| • Small angle approximations |  |  |\n| • Chain Rule, Product Rule, Quotient Rule |  |  |\n| • Implicit and parametric equations |  |  |\n| • Compound angle and double angle formulae |  |  |\n| • Conditional probability |  |  |\n| • Moments |  |  |\n| • Standard integrals, Integration by substitution, integration by parts\u003Cbr>• The Trapezium Rule\u003Cbr>• Differentiatial Equations\u003Cbr>• General Binomial Expansion\u003Cbr>• Iteration\u003Cbr>• Newton-Raphson Method\u003Cbr>• Normal Distribution, approximating a Binomial Distribution, Hypothesis testing\u003Cbr>• Projectiles |  |  |\n\n| How can you help at home? |\n| --- |\n| Encourage students to become independent learners.
