Maths is fun, it teaches you life and death information. Like, when you're cold, you should go stand in a corner since it's 90 degrees there.

Looking forward to welcoming prospective students and their families at tonight's open evening. Check out fast factors and the horse racing activity!
It's coming home, it's coming... your last maths homework of the year will be coming home this week 😁
This one is for those of our pupils who might considering Maths at University. Oxford University are streaming 1 hour of Maths puzzles, challenges etc on Thursdays at 17:00. Great addition to a University application!

Some of our students have been researching Katherine Johnson this week as part of Creativity Day!
Katherine Johnson was a brilliant mathematician who worked at NASA in the 1950s, and became essential to the US space programme. #WomenInScience

2021 is both the difference of two square numbers and the product of two consecutive primes.
Just another reason to prefer it to 2020 really.
Is decorating a Christmas Tree an art or a science? Bit of both?
Certainly seemed to be both when our own Carolina took it on herself to redecorate the tree in S7 today.
Starting today we'll be showcasing some of the brilliant work our young mathematicians are producing. Maths Monday starts now!
This week on #mathsmonday we've got some very complex Y13 A-Level work dealing with cot, sec and cosec. Mrs Shuttleworth couldn't wait to show this off, so much so there were 2 more images than Twitter wouldn't let me attach!
Next up on Maths Monday (Yes, I know it's Tuesday) we've got some perfectly set out HCF and LCM questions. One of our pupils in 8S should be very proud, Mrs Poole certainly was! #mathsmonday
Spotted by Mr Kerswell on Only Connect last night, can you complete the sequence? There is more than one correct answer!
Whilst unusual, this is as common as any other combination of numbers that can be selected. Can you think of any reason why there were so many people that had these same numbers? #mathsinaction

Might take all the fun (?) out of Secret Santa, but the probabilities and permutations are certainly interesting!
