Yesterday saw the final of the Enterprising Maths competition in Scotland. Over 60 schools were represented during the day, which saw 250 students taking part in four rounds of competition. From answer mathematical questions, creating mathematical structures and running relays in the afternoon. The event was held at the Glasgow Science Centre, which provided the perfect backdrop to an event that encourages students to think about a career in the STEM subjects.

All of the students did really well during the day and the final results were:

  1. First place – Stewart's Melville College
  2. Second place – Dollar Academy
  3. Third place – Williamwood High School
