Since November a group of Year 9 students have been taking part in a Maths Circle Club supported by Axiom Maths. Each week the students come together to tackle a curriculum of challenging Maths problems. They grapple with problems while learning to think, speak and work like university mathematicians.
This half term the students have been focusing on a theme of parity and have used problems surrounding sums of pairs and space networks. The students have even looked at some famous problems linked to these areas such as 'The Bridges of Konigsberg'.
Each week the students have become more confident in their own abilities and have enjoyed being part of a Maths community that encourages excellence in the subject.
