Admissions

Student admissions

King’s College London Mathematics School provides a unique opportunity for the brightest and best young mathematicians to stretch themselves and prepare for further study and work in the mathematical sciences.

The school aims to widen participation in the mathematical sciences by supporting young people from backgrounds currently under-represented in these fields. Our application process reflects this aim.

If you have a question about applying to King’s Maths School, please check our Frequently Asked Questions page first, where you will find answers to many common admissions queries. If you cannot find the information you need, please submit an admissions enquiry using our online form.

Application journey

To learn more about the school before applying, we recommend you attend an open evening and/or a taster day if you get offered a place. All applications for entry in 2027 follow these key steps:

  • All applicants will be invited to sit a mathematics aptitude test in December 2026.
  • Those who achieve a high score will be invited for an interview in January 2027.
  • Conditional offers are issued in early February 2027.
  • Enrolment day coincides with GCSE results day in late August. Successful applicants will need to come to the school in person to enrol at King's Maths School.

360 virtual tour

During the COVID-19 restrictions, we were not able to host open events. We decided in response to make a film and a virtual tour showing prospective students our building. The film is complemented by videos introducing applicants to staff members, students and members of our alumni community. Please note, this film features our former Head Teacher Mr Dan Abramson OBE. We are aiming to produce a new film in 2024 featuring Mr Timothy Bateup who joined us as Head Teacher in September 2023.
