Welcome to core mathEMATICs

The Core Maths qualification is for students who have passed GCSE mathematics at grade 4 or above but have decided not to study A level mathematics. The qualification strengthens students' existing skills and focuses on applying mathematics to solve problems relevant to everyday life.

Core Maths builds on GCSE mathematics, with a sharper focus on problem-solving skills. Students will consider and tackle mathematics in meaningful contexts, including through financial applications and statistical ideas that can support work in other subjects.
