The impact
Spotlight: MESME Maths Circles
We are delighted to be a partner in the unique
Mathematics Education for Social Mobility and Excellence
(MESME) Maths Circles programme, which seeks to
support high potential mathematicians on their journey
‘from Key Stage 3 to PhD’. The Maths Circles give a small
group of students the opportunity to come together with
a knowledgeable mentor, in the shape of a Tutor Trust
tutor, to grapple with intriguing questions, discover and
explore exciting ideas, and delve deeper into the wonders
of mathematics.
All MESME programmes are fully funded and are
o昀昀ered only to existing Tutor Trust partner schools.
In 2022/23, we:
• Delivered MESME Maths Circles in 18 schools
• Supported 266 high-potential mathematicians
• 63% of the MESME tutees were eligible for Pupil
Premium funding.
Thank you ever so much for presenting new
ways of mathematics to our pupils. It has been
a pleasure to work with your ever so polite and
communicative team.
