Students at Sidmouth College have been recognised for their strong performances in the UKMT Senior Maths Challenge, a national competition designed to stretch and challenge mathematical thinking and problem-solving skills.
Bronze and Silver awards are given to high-scoring participants, placing sixth formers among the stronger performers nationally.
Staff at Sidmouth College praised the students for their success, noting that it reflects the school’s maths curriculum, which develops fluency, creativity and confidence in problem solving.
The achievement also reflects the school’s focus, as part of the Ted Wragg Trust, on preparing students for further study, work and everyday life while supporting high aspirations and academic excellence.
Mr Alex Evans, Headteacher at Sidmouth College, said:
“Our students did brilliantly in the UKMT Challenge. It’s fantastic to see their hard work recognised on a national level.”
