Croydon College is proud to announce that Entry 1 and Level 2 maths students will be taking part in MEI’s Further Education (FE) Maths Challenge. This competition is designed for post-16 students working towards gaining a Functional Skills maths qualification or improving their GCSE mathematics grade.

The students will be taking part in the college final on the 22nd February. This is for pairs of students who came first in the class round. Similar to the first stage, the final is split over the three levels (Funkies, Einsteins, Go Forth) and involves a Kahoot quiz and Tarsia puzzle. Winners from the college final will go on to compete in the regional London final on 30th March at Goldsmiths University. We wish our students the best of luck!
