The department runs a “More Able and Talented” programme for the most able boys in Forms I – IV. A small group of the best mathematicians are taken out of their normal teaching group once a fortnight and are introduced to mathematical enrichment beyond the confinements of the examination syllabuses.
Boys enter the Junior, Intermediate and Senior Mathematics Challenge Competitions run by the United Kingdom Mathematics Trust. Teams of four also represent the school in the Junior and Senior Mathematics Team Challenges, both locally and nationally.
Boys in the Sixth Form attend meetings of The Senior Mathematics Club which meets about 6 times a year at Cardiff University.
