Award winning Mathematicians

At the start of the term, we were pleased to learn of two significant individual successes in the follow up rounds of the Senior Mathematics Challenge. Pupils' progress forwards at two levels in this competition via a Kangaroo competition that, unsurprisingly, has its origins in Australia c. 1978 or via the British Mathematical Olympiad Round 1. Leo Li (5a) achieved a Merit Award for his efforts in the Olympiad Round and Aleks Grabski (L6e) also achieved a Merit in the Senior Kangaroo Challenge.  

Elsewhere, Freddie Facer (3a) achieved a Level 9 in his IGCSE papers which is a remarkable result given that he is still in the Third Form and we are hopeful that a similar success will follow when he sits the Level 2 Further Maths papers this summer.  

And last month, 111 students participated in the Intermediate Mathematics Challenge last month. Between them they won 37 Bronze Awards, 25 Silver and 18 Gold.
