FAQs

I have some students with very specific needs, will it work for them to attend?

We aim to be able to accommodate all students. This is not always possible but if there is anything we can do to facilitate specific needs, we will try our best. Please get in touch with the event organiser, Fiona Kitchen, who has experience of accommodating special requirements and needs at events, and can arrange to speak with you in more detail.

I'd like to bring a student group but it will be too difficult to be able to get cover for the day, what can I do?

The student(s) can attend the event without a supervising teacher.

Is this event only for students who are planning on studying a maths degree at university?

The day will have a specific maths focus and will have content for any student who enjoys maths or who is looking to improve their grade and experience some maths that will support their A level(s), and future study. This event is suitable for any student who is planning on studying a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering and/or Maths (STEM).

I have a large group of students I would like to book onto this event, will this be possible?

Please include the maximum number of student places you would like on your booking and we will try our best to accommodate you. For very large bookings we will offer you a certain number of places initially and then confirm whether we can offer you the rest. We aim to confirm all places at least 1 month before the event date.

Will lunch be provided?

Yes, lunch will be provided for students as well as teachers.
