Your second and final year at <strong>AAESS</strong> offers a great opportunity to show your expertise in the areas of pure<br />
maths and either statistics or mechanics. During the year you will study both Pure Core 3 (C3) and Pure Core 4<br />
(C4) along side either Mechanics 2 (M2), or Statistics 2 (S2) depending on the choice made in year 12.<br />
You will be examined in January on completion of the Pure core 3 (C3) course and possibly a Mechanics or a<br />
Statistics module. The second and third terms of this important year see you complete your study of pure<br />
maths with Pure Core 4 (C4) and possibly another unit.<br />
Students in year 13 may join a year 12 class to complete S1 or M1 if it fits their timetable. The mathematics<br />
teachers will be as versatile as possible to help overcome any clashes.<br />
The successful completion of this year in conjunction with year 12 will see you leave <strong>AAESS</strong> with an A-<strong>Level</strong><br />
qualification. The minimum requirements for this are C1, C2, C3, C4, and any two out of M1, M2, S1 and S2.<br />
