The Maths STEP Prep Summer School is a new initiative to help Year 12 (or equivalent) students from non-selective UK state-maintained schools and colleges who intend to apply to the University of Cambridge to study Maths. Run by the University of Cambridge Admissions Office in collaboration with NRICH, the Summer School will provide early preparation for and familiarisation with the Sixth Term Exam Paper in Mathematics (STEP).
Share in the festive spirit with our annual NRICH and Plus mathematical Advent calendars!
NRICH has published two online Advent calendars, one for primary students (ages 5 to 11) and one for secondary. This year the activities featured in the NRICH Primary Advent calendar are based on the theme Planet Earth, while the NRICH Secondary Advent Calendar presents a favourite video resource behind each door.
The Cambridge Maths Circle runs free events providing enjoyable and stimulating hands-on mathematical activities for children and young people of all ages from 5 to 18. Cambridge Maths Circle events are led by volunteer staff and students from the University of Cambridge Faculty of Mathematics.
Our NRICH website has just launched a new collection of free online resources to help potential university applicants prepare for sitting STEP Mathematics examinations.
STEP Mathematics is an additional examination, taken at the end of Y13, which forms part of conditional offers to mathematics applicants by Cambridge and some other universities.
