infoWhy this? Applying differentiation methods to many real world problems, providing methods for optimisation in situations. Algebra skills help provide a good understanding of manipulating to get solutions to problems. Solving equations and inequalities helps students pinpoint exact values and understand where relationships hold.

scheduleWhy now? Differentiation comes early so students can apply it throughout later work on curves and variable acceleration. The algebraic methods can be applied to further topics such as equations and trigonometry. Equations and inequalities comes after the algebra refresher, it consolidates manipulation skills before they are applied in graphs, quadratics and trigonometry.
