=**Bridging the gap to A level day 4-5/07/2013**= =**Bridging the gap Booklet**= __Aims of this booklet :__Some students find the transition from GCSE to AS Level really tough so in order that you make the best possible start to the course, we have prepared this booklet.We wish you luck in your GCSE results and hope to see you eager to learn in September.All students will be expected to complete this ‘Bridging the gap to A-Level’ booklet over the summer holidays.The aim of this booklet is help you understand A-A* GCSE work, which is the foundation of the maths you will be studying at A-Level. It is vital that you start your A-Level course with a thorough grasp of this work as we do not have enough time to cover it during lessons. For each topic, there are explanations and worked examples. There are also questions for you to complete with answers in the back to allow you to check and correct your work.**You will be assessed on this A-A* work at the start of term, and you need to gain at least 70% to pass.**If you do not pass the assessment, then you will need to redo it having done some revision in between the two resits. You might be asked to spend one hour after school every day until we are fully satisfied with your level of understanding, to ensure you are ready for the start of the A Level course.
