Hallam Pop Maths Quiz
This Quiz is organised by Hallam University in Sheffield and is open to teams from schools throughout the South Yorkshire region. Each team consists of a maximum of 6 pupils. The Quiz is organised along the lines of a pub quiz except of course all of the questions are about maths. There are in fact four seperate competitions taking place at the same time: one for Key Stage 2 pupils (years 5 and 6); one for Key Stage 3 pupils (years 7, 8 and 9); one for Key Stage 4 pupils (years 10 and 11) and one for Key Stage 5 pupils (years 12 and 13)
