The Mathematical Association’s Primary Mathematics Challenge aimed at the top 60 per cent of UK pupils aged nine to 11 takes place in November. Teachers order the multiple-choice test in packs of 10 costing pound;5 and are responsible for setting and marking it and can award gold, silver and bronze certificates to pupils. The most successful will take a tougher multiple-choice paper for the PMC finals in February. A book of all six previous PMC papers is available for pound;10.50 or pound;7.50 members (includes postage). MA, 259 London Road, Leicester LE2 3BE Tel: 0116 221 0013
