A Level Maths Scheme of Work — Board-Neutral
Forty-eight pages built on the one document every English specification is made from — the DfE subject content for AS and A level mathematics, its nineteen lettered sections and its three overarching themes — so it runs unchanged on every board. Differentiation from first principles gets a full week before the rule, and every Year 13 technique is derived from something already known rather than announced. The last six weeks are diagnosis-led: every lost mark on two mock papers is categorised, and each student's plan is built from their own totals.
- 1aFoundations: Proof, Algebra, Functions and Coordinate Geometry
- 1bCalculus Begins: Trigonometry, Exponentials, Differentiation and Integration
- 31c Applied Mathematics: Statistics, Mechanics and Vectors
- 2aExtending the Pure: Functions, Series, Identities and Advanced Differentiation
- 2bCompleting the Course: Integration, Numerical Methods, and the Applied Extensions
- 62c Synoptic Fluency: Diagnosis, Technique and the Examinations
Ten sections per unit, in the same order every time. Phases rather than single lessons, because A level mathematics is timetabled at five hours a week.
The nineteen sections are distributed across six units rather than taught in alphabetical order, and the three overarching themes are named where each is deliberately taught rather than left as a claim that they are threaded throughout.
One diagram per unit: the discriminant as a condition, the shrinking chord, the critical region, one curve differentiated three ways, the trapezium rule's error, and the four-category mark analysis the last term is planned from.
