Mathematicians Earn Gongs from UKMT!

The UK Maths Trust is established to advance the education of young people in maths. One way they meet this aim is by organising and running competitions.

On the 2nd May, 113 students from Year 7 and 8 sat the UKMT Junior Maths Challenge, made up of 25 multiple choice maths questions. It encourages mathematical reasoning, precision of thought and fluency to make students think.

From these students, 31 achieved a Gold, Silver or Bronze award which puts them in the top 50% of all students who participated in the competition across the world.

Congratulations to Faith in Year 8 who earned gold with the best result in school! Silver honours go to Ava, Lucy and Darcey in Year 7 and Elizabeth, Sadie, Ella and Emily in Year 8. Well done also ot our talented bronze winners who are too numerous to list!
