MathematicsA Level

Ideally, you should have at least a grade C in GCSE Maths (or equivalent). However, the course does include an optional study unit reviewing all the most relevant topics from our GCSE Maths course.

You don’t need to be based in the UK to enrol, however, you must sit your exams at a UK-based exam centre.

If English is your second language, we recommend you have an IELTS 5.5 or equivalent, but we’re happy to review your case on an individual basis.

This online course will teach you the AQA A Level Mathematics syllabus (7357).

You'll cover ten units, as well as review previous learning (GCSE Maths revision):

• Unit 1: Pure Maths 1
• Unit 2: Pure Maths 2
• Unit 3: Pure Maths 3
• Unit 4: Mechanics 1
• Unit 5: Statistics 1
• Unit 6: Pure Maths 4
• Unit 7: Pure Maths 5
• Unit 8: Pure Maths 6
• Unit 9: Mechanics 2
• Unit 10: Statistics 2

For full details of what you’ll learn on each unit, download our A Level Maths course guide.

Please note that while your course is 100% online, you must be based in the UK to sit your exams in person. 

You are responsible for booking your exams and we recommend that you arrange to sit them roughly 6 months before your chosen exam dates. 

There are 3 exams for the AQA A Level Mathematics syllabus (7357).

Roughly 6 months before your chosen exam dates, you should book your place at an exam centre.

You are responsible for booking your exams and must be based in the UK to sit them.

Your exam fees aren't included in the course cost as you'll pay these directly to your exam centre.

Yes, it’s exactly the same!

You’ll sit the same A Level exams at the same time as all the other students in the UK, and you’ll receive the same results, transcript and qualification.

Your A Level will be accepted by universities, colleges and employers worldwide, exactly as if you'd studied in school or college.

Most of our A Level qualifications are accredited by AQA, the largest A Level awarding body. They set and mark the exams for around half of all A Levels taken in the UK each year. If you're taking A Level Economics, however, you will be awarded by Pearson Edexcel, the qualifications arm of Pearson, and the UK’s largest education organisation.

While your A Level course is delivered entirely online, you may need to purchase additional resources, such as textbooks or equipment (for example, a geometry set). These are not included in the course fee, but many textbooks are available second-hand online at a reduced price.

Please note that you can't sit AQA A Level exams outside the UK.

Your exam centre could be a school or college that's also submitting its own students for the exam, or it could be a private exam centre.

Our partner centre, Tutors & Exams, offers various discounts to ICS Learn students and has nine exam venues across the UK, including Belfast, Bolton, Coventry, Doncaster, High Wycombe, Romford, St Neots, Taunton and Wimbledon.

You can use the JCQ search tool to look for an exam centre near you that accepts private candidates. This tool won’t cover every available centre, so if there’s nothing shown in your area, we recommend contacting local schools and colleges directly.

Please note that if you're studying A Level English Language, A Level English Literature or A Level History with us, you must find and book an exam centre before applying for entry with us.

Finally, your exam fees aren’t included in the course cost as they’re paid directly to the exam centre.

Student Course Summaries are monthly reports we create (per subject) for both students and parents who want to remain in the know with any of the following throughout their course: 

• Access History: tells you how many days within the month the student has logged in and how many days they've viewed the course. 
• Submitted Assignments/Mock Exams: documents what assignments have been submitted, as well as when it was submitted, how many times the assignment has been attempted, and what grade they received. 
• Help Requests: this will show the correspondence between the student and the tutor, any questions that have been asked and what the tutor's response was. 
• Course Announcements: this is where students and parents can find updates on things such as course updates, live lessons (if applicable), exam booking info or tutor holidays.

The fee for this monthly report is a one-off price, no matter how many courses a student is enrolled in, and the fee can be integrated into your flexible payment plan. However, keep in mind that this fee is separate from the multi-buy discount. 

If you’re funding the course yourself, our flexible 0% payment plans* allow you to spread the cost with interest-free* monthly instalments. 

If your employer is funding all or part of your course, we can invoice them directly for your course fees – just let your course advisor know and we’ll arrange everything.

We also accept funding through ELCAS for this course. If you’re an Armed Forces member looking to use the Enhanced Learning Credits Scheme, speak to our course advisors for more details.

If you’d like to pay in full, you can enrol online using the ‘Add to Basket’ button at the top of the page.

If you’d like to set up an interest-free payment plan, get in touch with our A Level Advisors on 0800 015 3326. You can also verify that your course is budget friendly when you use our handy affordability calculator. 

If you have any disabilities which you think might affect your studies or assessments, please tell your Course Advisor before you enrol so we can advise you on whether reasonable adjustments can be made to accommodate your needs.
