Mathematics

Studying Maths has never been as important as it is today. It is the foundation of all the sciences and anyone aiming to study a scientific subject at university should consider it. It is also one of the most sought-after subjects by employers in any field. At Tallis, our expert teachers have an excellent record of success over many years in preparing students to succeed at Mathematics and Further Maths A-level. We’ve recently placed students at Cambridge, Oxford, Warwick and Imperial College for Mathematics. If you’re interested in taking STEP papers for Oxbridge entrance and the like, we offer coaching from Oxbridge and Imperial Maths undergraduates in addition to high-quality teaching from experienced staff. It’s worth noting: we strongly recommend that anyone thinking of studying Maths at university should take both Mathematics and Further Maths A-levels.

Mathematics students focus on pure Mathematics, Mechanics and Statistics. Further Maths students must study A-level Mathematics, and their course includes harder problems and topics in pure Maths, Statistics, Mechanics and Decision Maths. The subject has a strong emphasis on modelling, problem-solving and reasoning. To be a successful mathematician you need to be logical, persistent, and hard-working.

For students with a level 4 or above in Maths, we offer a one-year Core Maths course, equivalent to an AS-level. This course develops mathematical skills in practical contexts and supports the numerical and statistical content in other subjects, such as Biology, Geography and Psychology. The course is out of the way by the end of Year 12 so you can really concentrate on your other three subjects - but with bonus UCAS points in the bag.

For those of you who just missed your 4 at GCSE or who want to top up to a 5 or 6 we also offer a GCSE Maths retake course.
