A team of four of our best Sixth Form mathematicians, Catherine Leigh, Olivia Jones, Tom Haley and Joe Hook, took part in the Regional Final of the Senior Team Maths Challenge at Warwick University earlier this month. Nineteen teams completed against each other from independant grammer and comprehensive schools in the area. BGN did very well but narrowly missed a place in the next round of the competition. The team made the most of the opportunity to look at the University Maths Department at the same time.
Well done to the team and thank you for giving up an evening to represent the school so well.
