The AMSP offers some great ways to engage your students, and inspire them to continue to study maths and other mathematically rich subjects beyond AS/A level.

We offer a large programme of enrichment activities, including taster sessions for degree-level maths. These are available at locations throughout England:

This event is for enthusiastic Year 12 female maths students who are considering studying maths or a closely-related subject at university. Non-binary and trans students are most welcome if they feel this is the right space for them. If you have any queries, please get in touch.

The day has been designed to develop students’ problem-solving and teamwork skills and to encourage more female students to study maths. Students will work on an extended problem in small groups, quiz current students about university life, and hear from young women who use maths in their jobs. We’re hosting this event at universities to enable students to experience a university environment.

A series of maths problem-solving sessions designed to give students the confidence to apply for university courses that require or take into consideration achievement in an admissions test.

These regular classes offer students the opportunity to develop mathematical problem-solving skills through discussion and collaboration. They are designed to help students to develop strategies and confidence when tackling unfamiliar problems in maths and will help with preparations for taking advanced papers such as the MAT, TMUA and STEP examinations.

At the same time, the problems used in the course are fun and rewarding. Attending the sessions will greatly enrich students’ mathematical experience and help them to develop a better understanding of A level Mathematics.

This course is for year 12 students from state-funded schools, academies and colleges who are interested in applying for places at Oxford University, Imperial College, Durham University, University of Bath, University of Manchester and Warwick University to study Mathematics, or for students who wish to improve their mathematical problem solving skills in preparation for a university course. Please note that the course is not suitable for GCSE students.

Students applying for places to study Mathematics or Computer Science courses (including joint honours) at Oxford University and any Mathematics undergraduate course at Imperial College, London will be required to sit the Mathematics Admission Test (MAT) as one part of the admissions process. Students applying for Mathematics at Warwick University will generally be required to sit an admissions test (MAT, TMUA or STEP), and several other universities give precedence and/or lower offers to students who are successful in such tests.

This course is designed to prepare students for the way they will have to think to achieve success in the MAT, TMUA and other problem-solving mathematics examinations by developing their mathematical thinking and problem solving skills.

The course consists of three face to face study days, three summer assignments and four online follow-up sessions.

This course is aimed primarily at Year 12 students who are interested in beginning to develop their problem solving skills or who are wanting to find out more about university entry examinations. Year 13 students would also benefit, especially those considering undertaking university admissions tests.

Course Length: 1 day

A one day conference for year 12 maths students & their teachers to develop deeper mathematical problem-solving skills.

This event is ideal for students who are thinking of applying to study mathematics, engineering or related university courses.

Course Length: 1 day

This one day student and teacher conference is designed to aid students in developing their problem solving skills to the proficiency required for universities who include an admissions test in their offer.

Teachers will learn about the variety of admissions tests that include maths and the programmes of support that are available for their students.

We are running an online course to prepare students for the TMUA (Test of Mathematics for University Admission), which is the mathematical admissions test used by Durham University, the University of Warwick and Lancaster University.

Students can gain a reduced offer at Durham University or Lancaster University with a good score in the TMUA. The University of Warwick will also accept a good score in the TMUA as part of its entry requirements. There are two papers with 20 multiple choice questions on each.

This course will consist of seven one-hour online sessions. Students are also welcome to enrol on our similar course for the MAT (Mathematics Admissions Test), but there is no obligation to attend both courses.

The online course for the TMUA will run in September and October, with exact dates to be confirmed nearer the time.

You can also find a range of opportunities designed and delivered according to local need by our local Area Coordinators.

In addition, we can arrange school visits to provide an enrichment experience for smaller groups of students. Contact your local AMSP Area Coordinator to discuss your needs.

The Senior Team Maths Challenge

The Senior Team Maths Challenge (STMC) provides enrichment and challenge to students in Years 11, 12 and 13 on their mathematical, communication and teamwork skills. Competition materials from previous years can be downloaded from our STMC resource archive.

The STMC has historically been organised by the AMSP in partnership with the UK Mathematics Trust (UKMT). Since 2021, STMC events have been coordinated solely by the UKMT. For further details please visit their website.
