Outreach - For students
Axiom Maths Circle
Axiom is a long-term programme and students who join in Year 7 will be guaranteed a place on the programme for their entire school journey. A Maths Circle is a small group of students who come together to grapple with intriguing puzzles, discover and explore exciting ideas and learn to think like mathematicians. Our experience is that the students who most enjoy the Circles are high-attainers who love problem-solving and imaginative, creative thinking.
GCSE+ Maths
GCSE+ Maths is an extensive programme of enrichment for students in Years 9 to 11. You’ll be diving deep into fascinating maths. You’ll explore ideas that surprise you, intrigue you, and inspire you. You’ll make deep and unexpected connections between various GCSE topics and concepts. You’ll strengthen your understanding and improve your reasoning and develop your problem-solving skills.
GCSE+ Physics
GCSE+ Physics is a free weekly term time programme for students who enjoy physics and seek a deeper understanding of physical concepts. You will get the chance to take part in practicals and solidify your understanding with experienced, skilled and knowledgeable physics teachers. This programme is available for students in Year 9 and continues through to Year 11.
GCSE+ Computer Science
GCSE+ Computer Science is an up to two-year programme of weekly sessions for students in Year 9-11 to learn more about coding and programming. You’ll be exploring how to use the programming language Python to code your own ciphers, draw fascinating geometrical designs with LOGO and develop your understanding of the ethics behind computer science and AI.
Summer Schools
During the summer, KCLMS will be running two completely free summer schools. One will be a five day programme aimed at Year 11 students who are planning to take Maths and Physics at A Level this September. The other will be a four day programme aimed at enthusiastic female, and female-identifying, mathematicians and physicists coming to the end of Year 10.
Applications will open the week beginning 21 April 2025 for both summer schools.
Extension Mathematics University Admissions Prep
King’s Maths School are offering weekly Extension Mathematics sessions to help prepare students to study mathematics at a top university. It is an opportunity to discuss challenging (but fun!) mathematics, and hence to develop problem-solving skills by extending Year 12 content to new situations. We will look at past MAT, TMUA, and STEP questions which will prepare you for UKMT or Olympiad style competitions. Essentially the focus will be on meaningful mathematics enrichment.
Extension Physics: University Admissions Prep
King's Maths School are offering weekly sessions to discuss challenging (but fun!) physics, and hence to develop problem-solving skills by extending Year 12 content to new situations. We will look at past British Physics Olympiad papers in preparation for the Senior Physics Challenge in March. In time, this will lead naturally to preparation for anybody considering a degree in Physics, Engineering or Natural Science (with Physics) at Oxford or Cambridge. Essentially the focus will be on meaningful physics enrichment.
