The student is consistently exceeding the standards set out in the Maths programme of study. Performs procedures accurately, interprets and communicates complex information accurately. Makes deductions and inferences and draws conclusions. Constructs substantial chains of reasoning, including convincing arguments and formal proof. Generates efficient strategies to solve complex mathematical/nonmathematical problems by conversion into a series of mathematical processes. Makes and uses connections, which may not be immediately obvious, between different parts of mathematics. Interprets results in the context of the given problem. Critically evaluates methods, arguments, results and the assumptions made. Recalls accurately all elements of Mathematics as set out by the programme of study for GCSE and uses terminology to an exceedingly high level. Defines terms and interprets notation accurately. Carries out multi-step solutions and presents coherent arguments and proofs where necessary. Critically evaluates ways of presenting information.
