Intermediate Mathematical Challenge

The Intermediate Mathematical Challenge is a 60-minute, multiple-choice Challenge.

It encourages mathematical reasoning, precision of thought, and fluency in using basic mathematical techniques to solve interesting problems.

The problems on the Intermediate Mathematical Challenge are designed to make students think.

The UKMT results have arrived and it’s another impressive batch of awards for our students in Years 8, 9, 10 & 11; 119 students participated this year.

As a school we had a record number of participants, 119 across 4 year groups, they achieved 23 Gold, 23 Silver and 31 Bronze awards.

Best in School & Year 11 with an impressive score is Atty with 135, full marks!

Best in Year 10 is Pip with an awesome score of 124.

Best in Year 9 is Maya who achieved a Gold award.

Thanks to their wonderful performance, Atty, Pip & Maya have qualified for the prestigious Olympiad round on Thursday 16th March. The Maclaurin Mathematical Olympiad is an invite only follow-on round to the Intermediate UKMT. It is a 2-hour Challenge consisting of six problems requiring full written solutions.

Best in Year 8 is Latte who also achieved a Gold certificate, fantastic achievement.

All students who take part receive a participation certificate, well done to everyone who got involved.
