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.

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.
