An A level (“advanced level”) is the most common qualification offered to UK students between the ages of 16 and 18 years old. An A level course typically takes two years (years 12-13). A student who only completes the first year of a full A level will obtain a AS level (“advanced subsidiary level”) qualification.
Our Getting Startedguide gives you an overview of the new A Level qualification to help you to get to grips with the changes to content and assessment, as well as helping you understand what these changes mean for you and your students.

Let’s start with the mathematical notation for different number types. is the set of real numbers – in other words any number that doesn’t involve the square root of a negative value. This covers all the numbers that you’ll be dealing with in A-level Maths. If you study Further Maths at A-level then you’ll also be dealing with imaginary numbers (wh...
If you’re asked to give the answer to an inequality question using set notation then this is the form of mathematical notation that you should use. Let’s say you’ve solved your inequality and found that has to be greater than 2 and less than or equal to 7. You’d normally write this solution as but in set notation it would look like this: which alte...
Finally (for this section) we have an alternative form of mathematical notation used to indicate inclusive and exclusive inequalities. A round bracket indicates an exclusive inequality and a square one is inclusive. So is an alternative way of writing , meaning that can take any value from 2 to 7, including 7 but not including 2. You sometimes see ...
The mathematical symbols for “therefore” ( ) and “implies” ( ) are very useful in writing out proofs. These two symbols are usually interchangeable, and are used in the case where, if A is true, then B must be true. For example: or Equally, you could say that BECAUSE : However, note that it doesn’t go the other way: if then that doesn’t necessarily...
This section covers permutations and combinations. Arranging Objects. The number of ways of arranging n unlike objects in a line is n! (pronounced ‘n factorial’). n! = n × (n – 1) × (n – 2) ×…× 3 × 2 × 1. Example.
