You may recall earlier in the year Oathall hosted a UK Maths Trust Intermediate Mathematical Challenge for Years 9-11. Well now it’s the Year 7 and 8’s turn!
It’s time for them to sign up for the Junior Mathematical Challenge which is taking place in school on Wednesday 29th April.
The deadline to sign up – using this Form – is Wednesday 22nd April.
The Junior Mathematical Challenge is a 60 minute, 25 multiple choice question challenge. It encourages mathematical reasoning, precision of thought and fluency to make students think.
If students wanted to get a feel for the sort of questions they may be challenged with, they can see some past papers on the UKMT website.
This is a great opportunity for budding mathematicians to shine – but also for all students to take part in a nationwide challenge representing their school.
Once again, they need to sign up by 22nd April 2026.
