Mathematics: Applications and Interpretation (Diploma)

Taught in: Year 12 - 13
Exam Board: IBO

This course is designed for students who enjoy describing the real world and solving practical mathematics, those who are interested in harnessing the power of technology alongside exploring mathematical models and who enjoy the more practical side of mathematics. As such, this is an excellent course for students who want to further their understanding and love of mathematics in preparation for University and the world of work, as they will develop valuable knowledge and problem solving skills important for both pathways.

The course is offered at Higher level and Standard level becomes an option in year 13 if a student is identified as struggling and interventions are unsuccessful. In Higher level, students will draw on their knowledge from GCSE on topics such as geometry but will go onto discover the wonders of calculus and the power of the Graphics display calculator. The course is thorough and challenging but support is offered from a very experienced department. This course will further develop mathematical knowledge and problem solving skills that will serve students well if they wish to study Mathematics at a higher level or any other course with a high level of mathematical content.
