Students from the Isle of Wight College have achieved outstanding success at the prestigious MEI Maths Regional Final, held at the University of Sussex’s Brighton campus last Friday (21st March).
The competition brought together some of the most promising young mathematicians from across the Southeast, providing a challenging platform for students to apply their problem-solving and analytical skills in a competitive setting.
The Isle of Wight College entered 3 teams into the event, each categorised by grade. All 3 teams performed exceptionally well against a strong field of 8, securing top positions and demonstrating the depth of talent at the college.
The team named ‘Ein2steins’, made up of Lottie Morris, Lenny Njenga, Tyler Pickett and Logan Phillips, claimed 1st place, impressing judges with their strong mathematical reasoning and collaborative approach.
2 further teams from the College also achieved 2nd place finishes. The ‘Funkies’ team – Elliott Stewart, Liam Cox, Bobby Hope and Blake Bruce-Daly – and the ‘Go Forths’ – Leona Ram, Lily Roy, Summer Broome and George Wilkinson-Silk – both delivered outstanding performances across a series of timed challenges.
A spokesperson for The Isle of Wight College praised the students’ effort, sayings:
“We are immensely proud of our students’ achievements at the MEI Maths Regional Final. Their success reflects their commitment, hard work and enthusiasm for the subject. Competing at this level and securing such strong results is a credit to both the students and the staff who support them
