The Cambridge Mathematics School – a new specialist sixth form being developed in partnership with the University of Cambridge – will open in September 2023 with a focus on pioneering learning and increasing diversity in the field of maths. Based in Mill Road, Cambridge, the School will welcome 16 to 19-year-old A-Level students from across the East of England, and aims to attract more female students into maths subjects, more students from minority ethnic groups, and more students from socially and educationally disadvantaged backgrounds. The principal aim of maths schools is to help prepare more of the UK’s most mathematically able students to succeed in maths disciplines at top universities, and address the UK’s skills shortage in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) subjects.
