Please do check out the new and improved STEP Support Programme website!

New academic year, new Step Support Programme website!

Over the summer we have updated our website, had a bit of a tidy up, and added some new content.

One of the new features is a "Check in test' for students who have completed the foundation modules complete with marksheme.

A STEP (maths) question about Harry the calculating horse.

The two STEP questions that I would usually suggest have already appeared on this thread, so I'm going for Harry the horse 🐎

Invitations have been emailed out to all UK State School Cambridge STEP offer holders inviting them to join a series of STEP support programme webinars!

A woman walks a brown and white Sprocker spaniel. The woman and the dog are looking at each other. The woman's coat has been slightly mud splattered by a slightly over enthusiastic retrieve.

Thought I would introduce myself! My name is Claire, and I was a secondary maths teacher for 15 years and have now been working for over 10 years in Maths Outreach for Cambridge University. In my spare time I chauffeur my kids about and walk my 3 dogs.

Exciting times for the Cambridge Maths faculty (and maths.org!)
