Participants solve 24 questions in 90 minutes, using their knowledge of the curriculum and problem-solving skills they have acquired in class, and in additional preparation sessions.
Preparatory School students prepared in extension classes, run by Miss Harradine and Mr Harradine. Year 7-8 students in the X_Maths and the Standard + classes prepared in their lessons and for this year group, a Co-Curricular Mathematics opportunity is also offered, being held fortnightly on Sundays, run by Miss Harradine and Mrs Matthews. Year 9 Standard +, Standard ++ and the 10A classes also engaged in non-routine problem-solving in their lessons, while Senior boys (Year 11 and 12) had preparation sessions during lunchtime on Wednesdays, organised by Mrs Matthews.
Any award in this competition is a very pleasing effort, but placing in the top 10 in any division is a truly wonderful achievement. Award winners will be recognised at the Presentation Night to be held at Pembroke School on 9th May 2023.
