Exeter Mathematics School Sample Clauses

Exeter Mathematics School. The University sponsors Exeter Mathematics School, the first University-sponsored school outside of London, specifically designed to meet the needs of able mathematics students throughout the South West. The state-funded school was judged outstanding in all categories by OFSTED in January 2017. One of the key findings of the inspection was that the school successfully recruited young people who had not previously had the opportunity to fulfil their potential in mathematics and science. Around 20% of learners are from disadvantaged backgrounds and over 25% have a learning difficulty and/or disability. OFSTED found no gaps in attainment rates between different groups of learners, including those from low income families. One of the aims of the school is to encourage female students in maths. The proportion of female learners has increased from a fifth to a third - well above the national average for participation in physics and further mathematics - and the school will continue its efforts to achieve a target of 40%. Colleagues from the University, Exeter College and industry work closely with the school across all areas from governance to the curriculum. The A level syllabus is significantly enriched by the sponsorship of the University. Problem-solving, and an ability to think creatively about mathematics, is developed throughout and students take part in project work and assignments, designed by our academics to develop the skills and attributes needed to flourish at university. The OFSTED inspection noted that pupils “take full advantage of the excellent support from undergraduate and post-graduate mentors who introduce them to the rigours of university research and assist them with developing and presenting projects. Learners gain a very good insight into higher education through experiencing aspects of campus life at Exeter University and inspirational lectures by university academics. Learners also receive very good advice on vocational options and higher apprenticeships.” In 2015/16, 97% of students firmly accepted university places and 55% were offered places at a Xxxxxxx Group institution; 80% gained A*AB in their A Levels and 45% achieved an A* result in Mathematics. For the second consecutive year, the school is amongst the top 1% of providers for student progress.
