About Lancaster University School of Mathematics

Lancaster University School of Mathematics, run by the Rigby Education Trust, in partnership with Lancaster University and Cardinal Newman College.

A sixth form community where talented mathematicians can excel. It recruits the brightest and most talented 16-19 year old maths pupils from across Lancashire, whatever their background, and brings them into an inclusive community of other exceptional pupils.

Based close to Cardinal Newman College in Preston, we provide an intellectually stimulating and challenging curriculum along with high-quality resources for 16-19 year olds who love maths. Students receive exceptional teaching, first-class facilities, and a high-quality enrichment programme that encourages the practical application of maths and brings in industry experts to the classroom.

For some school pupils, being naturally gifted in maths and science subjects can set them apart for the wrong reasons. A specialist Maths School brings together these talented individuals and creates a vibrant community where they are actively encouraged to explore the subjects they love. The curriculum is extended beyond the standard Maths A-level to provide a stretching and inspiring education delivered by the Maths School staff, members of Lancaster University and Cardinal Newman College.
