Our weekly maths club aimed at Y6-10 students runs on Saturdays on UCL campus during school term.
Our tutors try to foster rigorous thinking by discussing a series of approachable maths problems centered around a single theme each week.

We are pleased to announce we will be returning to UCL this year, with Circles running each Saturday from October 5th.
We will kick off the season with Verbal Maths Challenge on September 28th. This will be a one-off maths competition for Year 7 to 9 students, with participants solving through three sets of questions on their own, in succession. The results of the event will be factored in when inviting students to the Circles.

UCL Maths Club by WeSolveProblems WeSolveProblems and UCL host the first verbal maths challenge at UCL for Year 7-9 students on September 29th at 2:00pm. The winners will be invited to the UCL Maths Club.
A sample problems from one of our very first circles back in 2015:
You are stranded on an island inhabited only by Liars and Knights. Liars always lie and Knights always tell the truth.
You meet a knight, but when you ask him the same question twice, his second answer is suddenly different from the first. How is it possible?
If that problem looks easy, try solving the rest of that problem sheet!http://wesolveproblems.org.uk/problems/circlehw/2015_11_16_circlehw.pdf
