Intermediate Mathematical Challenge 2025
As part of the recent school STEM festival, the Year 9 and 10 students took on the yearly challenge of the UKMT Intermediate Mathematics Challenge 2025.
This national event presents an annual challenge to students in Years 9 and 10 and takes the form of a multiple-choice quiz based on using mathematical skills learnt in lessons to problem solve.
Over 4000 schools across the UK take part in this event and the standard of participation is high. Only the best achieving students can receive an award and to do so is recognition of the effort and ability of our students.
Once again, I am pleased to announce that our students have achieved one of our best ever set of results with 38 medals awarded. This represents a tremendous achievement for our students going up against some of the best other schools in the country.
This year’s prize winners are as follows:
Silver awards were achieved by:
(Year 10) Emily W (also best in Year 10), Elsie B, Tanisha S, Isabella S, Olivia H and Poppy M
(Year 9) Safiyyah R (also joint best in school and joint best in Year 9), Ava T (also joint best in school and joint best in Year 9), Sophia W, Philippa M, Emily T, Isabella N and Cherlotte Y.
Bronze awards were achieved by:
