Details of the day:



A series of workshops by leading Core Maths teachers, designed to capture
the imagination of students with the potential to progress on to Core Maths
study post GCSEs
Concurrent Core Maths training for teachers who have accompanied the
students
A unique Core Maths Competition in mixed school groups.
The day is intended for enthusiastic Year 10 students who want to continue with Maths after GCSE but are
predicted to achieve a 4 or 5.
Places are limited to SIX students plus one teacher per school or college. We would particularly like to
target students who are keen on the subject but feel that they don’t have the ability to carry on to A-level.
Please note that students should bring their own packed lunch to this event; lunch will be provided for
teachers. There are vending machines available in the common areas that we will be using.
