West Buckland School – Maths Challenge Success
30 May 2014
West Buckland School pupils are celebrating after achieving excellent results in this year’s UK Intermediate Maths Challenge. Top of the class and stand-out performer was Year 10 student Owen Zhou who gained a distinction in the national competition and placed in the top 50 for his age group.
Owen was part of a high achieving West Buckland team comprising fellow classmates Katie Hevingham, David Davies and Alun Sullivan that then won the regional heat of the Year 10 Maths Team Challenge held at Petroc at the end of the Spring Term.
This success saw them progress to the South West final held at the Met Office in Exeter on Friday 16th May, where they finished an excellent 7th out of 25 teams.
