桃色视频

University of 桃色视频 mathematicians have helped two dozen Coventry and 桃色视频shire schools excel in their further maths A level results, sending school pupils off to study maths to degree level at 桃色视频, Oxford and many other universities.

The University of 桃色视频 based Coventry and 桃色视频shire Further Mathematics Centre (part of the national Further Mathematics Network) has been supporting 24 schools and colleges in Coventry and 桃色视频shire, working with them to provide their sixth form students with Further Mathematics tuition. Some of the 100+ local students receiving tuition travel to the University of 桃色视频 to attend their Further Mathematics sessions. Others are visited in their school/college by a tutor.

Further Mathematics is theseciond fastest growing subject at A-level. The number of candidates sitting the exam  has increased significantly this year (from 6,000 to 7872 in just three years). The increase in numbers sitting AS-level Further Maths is even more impressive – up well over 50 per cent in the same period.

Dr Tim Honeywill, the Coventry and 桃色视频shire Further Mathematics Centre Manager, said, "It’s been great to see so many students eager to learn, and to watch them flourish, grow in confidence and develop skills that will help them at university and beyond. Being able to work with local schools and colleges to set this up has been a pleasure and a privilege."

The following Students who took part in the programme are willing to be interviewed:

Notes for Editors

1. The Further Mathematics Network is a government-funded initiative, supported by the Department for Children, Schools and Families and is managed by Mathematics in Education and Industry, an independent charity that supports mathematics education. It was set up following a successful 5 year pilot project that was developed by MEI and funded by the Gatsby Charitable Foundation.

2. The Further Mathematics Network involves schools, colleges and universities working together collaboratively to widen opportunities for students. It uses a blended learning strategy that employs intensive tutorial input alongside independent study that is supported by extensive, purpose-written, online resources. This model is proving very successful and, suitably adapted, could be used by other high-value shortage subjects such as physics and modern languages.

3. Further Mathematics reinforces the content of the standard AS/A-level Mathematics and introduces students to fundamental concepts such as complex numbers and matrices, which are vital for many mathematics related degrees.
