James Astles - in UK's top 50 mathematicians

James Astles is one of the UK’s top mathematicians for his age group.  The Year 9 pupil took part in a series of maths competitions organised by the UK Mathematical Trust.  In the Intermediate challenge, the top 400 Year 9 pupils from over two million participants nationally qualify for the Intermediate Mathematical Olympiad.  James’s results from the Olympiad were outstanding and he was awarded a medal and Certificate of Distinction placing him in the top 50 mathematicians for his age group in the country.

 

Commenting on James’s achievement, Mr Patrick Wilson, Headmaster said ”James’s ability in mathematics is exceptional and we congratulate him on this latest success.  I am confident that James will achieve continued success over the coming years in this field.  The mathematics department at Salesian College must also be commended for their dedication and mentoring of the students who continue to achieve outstanding results.”
