Getting Started Guide for teachersGetting started for teachers1. IntroductionResearch and key principlesThis Getting Started guide will give you an overview of the International Advanced Level (IAL) inMathematics qualification and what it means for you and your students. This guidance is intendedto help you plan the course in outline and give you further insight into the principles behind thecontent to help you and your students succeed.Key principlesThe specification has been developed with the following key principles:Clear specificationClear guidance on what students need to learn, providing clarity for planning, teaching andassessment. A review of other curricula and qualifications was undertaken to ensure that it iscomparable with those taken in high-performing jurisdictions internationally. Key stakeholderswere consulted on content and assessment, including higher education academics, teachers andemployers to ensure this qualification is suitable for an international contextProgression, not repetitionThe specification allows the development of understanding while at the same time avoidingrepetition, ensuring students are engaged and thereby inspired to develop their knowledge.Reflect today’s global worldThe International Advanced Level in Mathematics specification develops an understanding ofcurrent developments in mathematics.Clear assessmentsClear and consistent use of command words across assessments and between series. Ourapproach to assessments, definitions for the command words and details of how the commandwords are explained can be found in the glossary.Clear mark schemesThe new mark schemes provide a consistent understanding of the skills, and connectionsbetween these skills, required for each question type. Clear wording reflects how teachers andexaminers describe the qualities of student work, so the expectations are clear for teachers andmarkers.Skills for progressionPearson Edexcel International Advanced Level in MathematicsGetting Started Guide Pearson Education Ltd 2018

Getting Started Guide for teachers3. Planning3.1 Planning and delivering the courseThe IAL in Mathematics qualification can be taught and assessed as either: distinct modules of teaching and learning with related units of assessment taken atappropriate stages during the course; ora linear course, that is assessed in its entirety at the endOne of the first decisions that centres will have to make is whether they intend to offer asequential or thematic approach. A modular A Level will offer a more flexible approach as topicscan be selected in an order that meets the needs of the students.With examinations available in January, June and October there is flexibility for unit deliveryand teaching.We have provided an editable scheme of work including a suggested teaching plan to supportyou in planning your teaching of the new qualifications.3.2 Suggested resourcesTo support the teaching and learning of the new specification, we have provided acomprehensive list of suggested resources throughout the scheme of work.Pearson Edexcel International Advanced Level in MathematicsGetting Started Guide Pearson Education Ltd 2018

Assessment guidanceEach of the above units: is externally assessedhas a written examination of 1 hour and 30 minuteshas 75 marksWhen students have taken an eligible combination of units for a qualification, they are entitled toclaim that qualification. The process of claiming a qualification is often referred to as cashing in. Thiscan only take place in an exam series and is done by entering the qualification code for thequalification along with the entry codes for any units being taken in the same exam series.The allowable unit combinations for each of the qualifications in the specification are given below.Pearson Edexcel International Advanced SubsidiaryThe International Advanced Subsidiary in Mathematics, Further Mathematics and Pure Mathematicsqualifications each consist of three externally-examined units:QualificationCompulsory unitsOptional unitsInternational Advanced Subsidiary inMathematicsP1, P2M1, S1, D1International Advanced Subsidiary inFurther MathematicsFP1FP2, FP3, M1, M2,M3, S1, S2, S3, D1International Advanced Subsidiary in PureMathematicsP1, P2, FP1Pearson Edexcel International Advanced LevelThe International Advanced Level in Mathematics, Further Mathematics and Pure Mathematicsqualifications each consist of six externally-examined units:QualificationCompulsory unitsOptional unitsInternational Advanced Level inMathematicsP1, P2, P3, P4International Advanced Level in FurtherMathematicsFP1 and either FP2 or FP3M1 and S1 orM1 and D1 orM1 and M2 orS1 and D1 orS1 and S2FP2, FP3, M1, M2,M3, S1, S2, S3, D1International Advanced Level in PureMathematicsP1, P2, P3, P4, FP1Pearson Edexcel International Advanced Level in MathematicsGetting Started Guide Pearson Education Ltd 2018FP2 or FP3
Getting Started Guide for teachersThe certification of each qualification requires different contributing units. For example, studentswho are awarded certificates in both International Advanced Level Mathematics and InternationalAdvanced Level Further Mathematics must use unit results from 12 different units, i.e. once a unitresult has been used to cash in for a qualification, it cannot be re-used to cash in for anotherqualification.ResultsScores in unit tests are converted to a uniform mark scale in order to generate qualification results.Students will receive a uniform mark between 0 and 100 for each unit.The uniform marks at each grade threshold for each unit are:Maximumuniform markABCDE1008070605040The minimum uniform marks required for each qualification grade:International Advanced Subsidiary (cash-in code: XMA01, XFM01, XPM01)Maximumuniform markABCDE300240210180150120Students with a uniform mark in the range 0–119 will be Unclassified (U).International Advanced Level (cash-in code: YMA01, YFM01, YPM01)Maximumuniform markABCDE600480420360300240Students with a uniform mark in the range 0–239 will be Unclassified (U).For International Advanced Level in Mathematics, A* will be awarded to students who haveachieved grade A overall (at least 480 of the 600 maximum uniform mark) and at least 180 of the200 combined maximum uniform mark for the P3 and P4 units.For International Advanced Level in Further Mathematics, A* will be awarded to students who haveachieved a grade A overall (at least 480 of the 600 maximum uniform mark) and at least 270 of thePearson Edexcel International Advanced Level in MathematicsGetting Started Guide Pearson Education Ltd 2018

Getting Started Guide for teachers8. Transferable skills8.1 Why transferable skills?In recent years, higher education institutions and employers have consistently flagged theneed for students to develop a range of transferable skills to enable them to respond withconfidence to the demands of undergraduate study and the world of work. Ensuring thatIAL qualifications will help improve student outcomes through the acquisition of thesetransferable skills, as well as subject content and skills, is a key aim for Pearson.Through our teaching materials and support offered we want to:1. increase awareness of transferable skills that are already being assessed (for bothstudents and teachers)2. indicate where, for teachers, there are opportunities to teach additional skills thatwon’t be formally assessed, but that would be of benefit to students3. ensure these opportunities are embedded in the teaching and learning, so that theyare not an additional burden or requirement for teachers and students.8.2 Defining transferable skillsThe Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) defines skills, orcompetencies, as ‘the bundle of knowledge, attributes and capacities that can be learnedand that enable individuals to successfully and consistently perform an activity or taskand can be built upon and extended through learning.’[1]To support the design of our qualifications, the Pearson Research Team selected andevaluated seven global 21st-century skills frameworks. Following on from this process,we identified the National Research Council’s (NRC) framework [2]
