Pupils who attended the Excelsior Forum recently took part in a series of intellectually challenging activities designed to stretch their mathematical thinking and problem-solving skills.
The session focused on the concept of traversable graphs, a branch of mathematics that explores how networks can be navigated efficiently. Pupils applied their understanding to a range of complex, real-world transport challenges, considering how mathematical principles can be used to optimise routes and solve practical problems.
The forum provided an excellent opportunity for pupils to engage with higher-level mathematical concepts beyond the classroom, developing their analytical skills while demonstrating creativity, perseverance and collaborative thinking.
