Nuffield Advanced Mathematics Options
As part of the Nuffield Advanced Mathematics A-level course, each student had to choose an option to study from a list of eight titles. Students could take Further Mathematics at AS or A level by taking a further three or six options.
The option books were intended to be as suitable for individual work and independent study as they were for group work or in-class work in the hope that this would make it possible for students to have some say in the options they chose to study.
