    FMSPW

    The Further Mathematics Support Programme Wales (FMSPW) is a Welsh Government funded initiative. It is managed by the Wales Institute of Mathematical and Computational Sciences (WIMCS), a collaborative partnership of the universities of Aberystwyth, Bangor, Cardiff, Swansea and the University of South Wales, and is supported by Mathematics in Education and Industry (MEI).

    Our main aim is to provide Further Mathematics GCE AS/A2 level tuition for all English and Welsh awarding bodies to students who cannot access Further Mathematics through their local 11-18 schools or colleges in Wales.

    For more information about FMSPW please see our leaflet.

    Year 11 Conference

    "I’ve learnt that Maths has a lot more applications than I originally thought and is a great career option" Student Aberystwyth - September 2018

    Further Maths A Level

    “I really enjoyed the course and I would definitely recommend Further Maths to anyone who is interested in maths. Without Further Maths it is very unlikely that I would have received an offer from Cambridge University” - Anna Clancy – Student from Ysgol Maesydderwen – Jan 2014

    MAT Summer School

    “I have learned new ways to approach questions to find solutions. I now feel more confident in maths and have learnt more. I would have been a lot more worried about the MAT had the summer school not been available ” Swansea University – Summer 2018

    Revision day

    “Thank you so much! This was a brilliant session to prepare for M2 with a brilliant teacher. Thank you for covering everything! ” – Student from Bangor – June 2018
