About Maths Camps

Maths Camps bring together high-attaining Axiom Maths pupils in Years 9 and 10 to explore new areas of maths beyond the school curriculum. Pupils work alongside like-minded peers to tackle interesting and challenging problems, supported by our experienced team of coaches. Inspiring guest speakers show where maths can take them, from mathematical degrees and PhDs to careers that use maths every day.

Maths Camps nurtures and inspires the next generation of problem-solvers through:

Deep mathematical thinking

Challenging maths problems that require persistence, creativity and insight

Mathematical futures

Inspirational speakers and mathematicians who show where maths can take you

Venue information

Our camps take place at schools and universities across the country. Accommodation, meals, refreshments and all camp materials are provided on-site at each venue at no cost to the pupil or their family, so that pupils can focus on the maths and making friends. Maths Camp staff stay alongside pupils, providing pastoral care at night.

When schools register, they select the venue most convenient for Year 9 pupils. Year 10 pupils will attend a Maths Camp at Churchill College, Cambridge.

The Maths Camps experience

“Maths Camp has been one of the best experiences that I’ve ever had. It was a phenomenal opportunity for me to learn, and I hope that other students enjoy coming here as well in the future.”

Maths Camp participant

“Our leaders and coaches were really kind and caring. Something that I deeply enjoyed and admired were the guest lectures as they were really inspiring”

Maths Camp participant

“The Maths Camps team were very understanding and supportive, especially as this was my son’s first night away from home. I truly felt that they treated the children like family”

Family of Maths Camp participant

“My son really struggles with social interactions and so both of us were nervous about him coming. However, he came out absolutely buzzing and so excited to share what he had learnt. It tapped into his love of games and problem solving and he built friendships that I've not seen him do before. I can't thank you enough!”

Family of Maths Camp participant

“From the very first point of contact we felt that our daughter was in safe hands. From online meetings, access to recordings, regular emails, daily updates, and face to face support on the drop off and collection days, the team were warm and approachable.”
