Wallace has a history of success in the UK Intermediate Maths Challenge and this year is no different. The UK Mathematics Trust organises national mathematics competitions in the UK for 11-18 year old school pupils. These range from popular “mass” Maths Challenges to the selection and training of the International Mathematical Olympiad team (IMO).
The UKMT Challenges are designed to stimulate interest in maths in large numbers of pupils. The three levels cover the age range 11-18 and together they attract almost half a million entries each year from over 4,000 schools.
