Junior Challenge brings success
No fewer than 11 pupils came away with Gold, Silver or Bronze certificates from a Junior Challenge which is run by the UK Mathematics Trust.
Year 8 sensation Juan Rajagopal followed up his success in the Intermediate Challenge with Gold accolade, which also saw him awarded the Best in School, Best in Year 8 and qualification to the Junior Mathematical Olympiad later this year after managing to obtain an astonishing score of 127.
Also earning a Gold for his efforts was Arthur Hind, who scored an impressive 81 during the test.
There was further cause for celebration in the form of Rebecca Mann, who secured a Silver certificate thanks to her mark of 69, while Shruthi Ganapathi, Emily Penwright, Rhys Seenan, Alys Peake-Jones, Noah Langford, Dominic Vos and James Copeland gained a Bronze certificate.
Another to gain a Bronze certificate was Prep School pupil Zac Roberts, who defied his age to gain a 52 mark.
Head of Maths Peter Richmond, said: “I am delighted to say that in the recent UKMT Junior Mathematical Challenge, pupils from across Years 6, 7 and 8 continued to emulate the successes of their older peers from the Senior and Intermediate Mathematical Challenges earlier in the academic year.
