More information
I would like to invite you to nominate pupils who are more mathematically able, to attend the Royal Institution Mathematics Masterclasses to be held online over Zoom. The series of 4 classes will be on Wednesdays from 4:45 pm to 6:30 pm on June 14th, June 21st, June 28th, and July 5th.
There will be about 60 places available in total. All the places will be allocated on the basis of this one invitation and each school is guaranteed TWO places. Here is a link to the school nomination form for you to list up to five pupils you would like to attend:. The demand for places may be greater than the number available although I will try to offer a place to all pupils who are nominated. If you nominate more than two pupils please put them in priority order so that places may be offered without contacting you.
Also attached here is a sheet of information about the classes and a parental consent form; please duplicate these as necessary and distribute them to interested children in the right age band, i.e. Year 9 and Year 10. Please emphasise to your pupils that, whilst we aim to establish an enjoyable working atmosphere, the pupils who will derive the greatest benefit are those who are most attentive and hard working.
Please return the nomination form and parental consent forms from your school no later than Friday 26 May 2023 (contact details are on the nomination form).
Nomination forms may be sent in advance if preferred. All mathematics teachers are welcome to attend any or all of the masterclasses. If you have any queries, please email fmspwales@swansea.ac.uk.
