Grade 11 (Year 12 / AS) · Mathematics · UK / A-Level Stream · Semester 1 · 2026–2027

The semester, built proof by proof — the way A-Level maths itself is built.

Every week your student adds another layer of Pure Mathematics — from algebra and quadratics, through coordinate geometry and trigonometry, into the first steps of calculus, then on to Pure Mathematics 2. The colored points mark the moments we check in: mock exams, the midterm, and the final exam.
