Durham Mathematics School Transforming lives through education

Every maths school is founded by and run in close partnership with a university with a leading mathematics department. Durham University provides governance, opportunities for extension and challenge, access to university facilities and personnel, and support to widen participation in the mathematical sciences.

Durham Sixth Form Centre acts as an academic and structural partner to Durham Mathematics School. Alongside Durham University it is one of the founding organisations. The Centre shares resources and expertise in order to benefit the wider curriculum and will offer courses, experiences and collaborative enrichment programmes outside the STEM fields.

Providence Learning Partnership plays a pivotal role in the establishment of Durham Mathematics School by providing the operational and educational framework necessary for its success. Providence Learning Partnership is responsible for managing the curriculum, ensuring high teaching standards, and fostering an inclusive and rigorous academic environment.

Our aim is to inspire and support students from all backgrounds to develop their mathematical talents and pursue higher education in STEM fields. University maths schools offer a range of outreach programs and events that provide stimulating and enriching experiences for students of all ages, from primary school to pre-university level. These programs increase interest and participation in mathematics, improve attainment and progression, and encourage students from underrepresented groups to pursue STEM careers.

Our industry partners help students enrich their learning with real world thinking through mentoring, internships, and workshops – and by supporting the work of the maths schools with sponsorship and funding. Students are able to learn about the wide range of enrichment opportunities available to them and participate in projects with real-world dimensions that give them a taste for a future in STEM-related fields.
