Another 10 pupils from Years 9, 10 and 11 also gained Bronze awards. They were all applauded in the last assembly of term and Mark McBrien was presented with his certificate by the Headmaster, Brendan Wignall.

John Cowley, Head of Mathematics commented, �It is always good to see our pupils performing well in the Mathematics Challenge. There is no special preparation for it and so it is a real test of their mathematical ability. I particularly congratulate Mark on his notable success.�
