Maths can be a fun and satisfying subject to study. It helps you to think analytically and to develop your reasoning skills in order to solve problems.
In addition, achieving a Maths GCSE grade 4 or 5 (C) will improve your chances of, or may be essential to, securing a placement whilst studying at De Montfort, gaining employment once you have graduated and progressing onto further study – such as teacher training or a higher degree course.
So, if you haven’t already gained a Maths GCSE grade 4 or 5 (C) you might want to consider studying for one alongside your degree.
You can study GCSE Maths anywhere in the country with a local provider such as a Further Education College.
Details of two Leicestershire providers can be found by following the links below:
Leicestershire County Council,

Courses can be face to face or online. Please contact the course provider for further details.
A GCSE course typically starts around Mid September – so make contact as soon as you can.
If you have not already got a GCSE Maths grade 4/5 (C) or higher, and have been a resident of the UK for 3 years then it is likely that you are entitled to study it for free.
Wherever you study for your GCSE Maths the course will be part-time, run throughout the year, involve a lot of self-study and have exams in May/June next year. However, you will need to find out the actual details from your local provider
