UKMT

Some of our Y11s sat UKMT;  a challenge that encourages mathematical reasoning, precision of thought and fluency. Our 2 students; Mihran and Vyom, qualified for the Pink Kangaroo, which only the top 1% of the 700,000 students who sit UKMT get selected for! Mihran also got an invite to National maths summer school following his performance, where he will be mentored amongst the rest of the countries top mathematicians.
