Be a Mathematician for a Day
2025-06-14 | Wells Cathedral School, The Liberty, Wells, Somerset, BA5 2ST, United Kingdom
We are now at capacity for this day. Please contact admissions to be added to the waiting list.Our Summer Be a Specialist for a Mathematician Day event (open to pupils currently in Year 5) offers a taste of life as a specialist mathematician where participants enjoy a variety of activities similar to what they would experience as part of the Specialist Mathematics scheme here at Wells. We would then make a recommendation about next steps based on whether we feel that you would be suitable for this enrichment programme. Please register at least a week in advance if you wish to attend by using the form below, but please note that numbers are limited so you may wish to book early to avoid disappointment.I went to BAMFAD with my friends to see what it would be like if I were to become a Specialist Mathematician in Year 7. I think it’s a great way to learn challenging (but very fun) maths, as well as a chance to meet new people who also love maths as much as you do. It was a brilliant experience and it just makes me even more determined to become a Specialist Mathematician.– Previous participantClick here to find out more about our Specialist Mathematics Programme.Please enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Date you'd like to attend *Saturday 14th March 2026Saturday 13th June 2026Name of Pupil *Gender *Pupil's Date of Birth *DD12345678910111213141516171819202122232425262728293031MM123456789101112YYYY20262025202420232022202120202019201820172016201520142013201220112010200920082007200620052004200320022001200019991998199719961995199419931992199119901989198819871986198519841983198219811980197919781977197619751974197319721971197019691968196719661965196419631962196119601959195819571956195519541953195219511950194919481947194619451944194319421941194019391938193719361935193419331932193119301929192819271926192519241923192219211920Are they looking to join the School as a day or boarding pupil? *BoardingDayParent Name(s) *Email *Address *Address Line 1Address Line 2CityState / Province / RegionPostal CodeMobile Number *(for contact on the day only)Current School *Current School Year *Year 5Year 6Please specify any special dietary requirements (or put N/A) *If you don't have any requirements, please put N/APlease specify if your child has any medical conditions that we need to be aware of (or put N/A) *If you don't have any conditions to declare, please put N/ADo we have permission to take your child's photo and use it on our website, social media and send to the local press (children will not be named)? *YesNoHow did you hear about us? *The Bath and Wiltshire ParentBritish Boarding Schools AssociationCurrent or former pupil/parentDisplay banners/boards in local areaFacebookGood Schools GuideIndependent Association of Prep Schools (IAPS)InstagramInternet SearchISC Schools GuideLive in local areaMuddy StilettosPersonal recommendationSomerset LifeSchool House MagazineWells VoiceTalk EducationOtherPersonal Loss or Injury *I understand that Wells Cathedral School cannot accept responsibility for any personal loss or injury sustained by participants and that we are advised not to bring expensive items.Medical and Other Emergencies *I agree that in cases of medical or other emergencies, Wells Cathedral School staff will act in loco parentis.Please click here to read our Privacy Notice.

Be a Mathematician for a Day (Year 6)
2025-11-08 09:30 - 15:30 | Wells Cathedral School, The Liberty, Wells, Somerset, BA5 2ST, United Kingdom
November Date is now full. Our Spring Be a Specialist for a Mathematician Day event (open to pupils currently in Years 5 and 6) offers a taste of life as a specialist mathematician where participants enjoy a variety of activities similar to what they would experience as part of the Specialist Mathematics scheme here at Wells. We would then make a recommendation about next steps based on whether we feel that you would be suitable for this enrichment programme.I went to BAMFAD with my friends to see what it would be like if I were to become a Specialist Mathematician in Year 7. I think it’s a great way to learn challenging (but very fun) maths, as well as a chance to meet new people who also love maths as much as you do.

Be a Mathematician for a Day
2026-03-14 09:30 - 15:30, 2026-06-13 09:30 - 15:00 | Wells Cathedral School, The Liberty, Wells, Somerset, BA5 2ST, United Kingdom
Our Spring Be a Specialist for a Mathematician Day event (open to pupils currently in Years 5 and 6) offers a taste of life as a specialist mathematician where participants enjoy a variety of activities similar to what they would experience as part of the Specialist Mathematics scheme here at Wells. We would then make a recommendation about next steps based on whether we feel that you would be suitable for this enrichment programme.I went to BAMFAD with my friends to see what it would be like if I were to become a Specialist Mathematician in Year 7. I think it’s a great way to learn challenging (but very fun) maths, as well as a chance to meet new people who also love maths as much as you do. It was a brilliant experience and it just makes me even more determined to become a Specialist Mathematician.– Previous participant Click here to find out more about our Specialist Mathematics Programme.Please enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Date you'd like to attend *Saturday 14th March 2026Saturday 13th June 2026Name of Pupil *Gender *Pupil's Date of Birth *DD12345678910111213141516171819202122232425262728293031MM123456789101112YYYY20262025202420232022202120202019201820172016201520142013201220112010200920082007200620052004200320022001200019991998199719961995199419931992199119901989198819871986198519841983198219811980197919781977197619751974197319721971197019691968196719661965196419631962196119601959195819571956195519541953195219511950194919481947194619451944194319421941194019391938193719361935193419331932193119301929192819271926192519241923192219211920Are they looking to join the School as a day or boarding pupil? *BoardingDayParent Name(s) *Email *Address *Address Line 1Address Line 2CityState / Province / RegionPostal CodeMobile Number *(for contact on the day only)Current School *Current School Year *Year 5Year 6Please specify any special dietary requirements (or put N/A) *If you don't have any requirements, please put N/APlease specify if your child has any medical conditions that we need to be aware of (or put N/A) *If you don't have any conditions to declare, please put N/ADo we have permission to take your child's photo and use it on our website, social media and send to the local press (children will not be named)? *YesNoHow did you hear about us? *The Bath and Wiltshire ParentBritish Boarding Schools AssociationCurrent or former pupil/parentDisplay banners/boards in local areaFacebookGood Schools GuideIndependent Association of Prep Schools (IAPS)InstagramInternet SearchISC Schools GuideLive in local areaMuddy StilettosPersonal recommendationSomerset LifeSchool House MagazineWells VoiceTalk EducationOtherPersonal Loss or Injury *I understand that Wells Cathedral School cannot accept responsibility for any personal loss or injury sustained by participants and that we are advised not to bring expensive items.Medical and Other Emergencies *I agree that in cases of medical or other emergencies, Wells Cathedral School staff will act in loco parentis.Please click here to read our Privacy Notice.
