Course description
This GCSE Maths Higher Tier course is awarded by AQA and it is the same GCSE qualification studied in traditional schools. As well as providing students with an excellent level of knowledge, this online GCSE Maths course is ideal for students who are planning to study A Level maths in the future. This course will allow those wanting to boost their knowledge in a range of mathematical areas such as quadratic equations, loci, vectors, statistics, and more. This course is ideal for those aspiring to achieve a career in which maths plays a vital part, such as accounting, engineering, data, or financial management. And with many employers now requiring a minimum qualification in GCSE Maths, this course is essential for anyone who currently doesn’t hold a level 2 maths qualification who wants to go further in their career or study at a higher level in the future. If you choose to add your exams to your enrolment, we will book these for you, saving you the hassle of booking them yourself and giving you more time to dedicate to your studies.
Please note: this GCSE Maths course is written for those wishing to sit the higher level papers. To achieve your GCSE Maths Higher qualification, you must complete the exams.
