Mathematics (including Further Mathematics)Mathematics, one of the oldest academic subjects, is still very much
alive and growing. New developments are taking place all the time; some
as a result of fresh ideas within mathematics itself, and others stimulated
by applications to the physical, biological and social sciences, Economics
and Computing. As Mathematics has such a wide variety of important applications, there
is a constant demand for well-trained mathematicians in a wide range of
jobs. They can be found in aircraft design teams, analysing drug trial
statistics, studying the weather, in management positions in companies,
working as actuaries, accountants, teachers, researchers, computer programmers
and so on. At Reigate Grammar School, Mathematics is available at
three different levels, namely: Students who wish to embark on any of these courses will need a good grounding
in basic algebra and have the confidence to use the techniques learnt at
GCSE. They should be able to work on their own and have the ability to
apply given knowledge to a variety of problems. The applications consist of four mechanics modules, four statistics modules
and two decision modules. A more detailed syllabus is available from the mathematics department.
