This form is for teachers to nominate pupils for the Axiom Maths circles.
We are looking for pupils in Year 7 (or equivalent in Scotland and Northern Ireland) in the 2025/26 academic year, to start maths circles in January 2026.
These circles are fully-funded for nominated Year 7 pupils, guiding them on a five-year journey through to Year 11. Most pupils will take part online with us, but some may be offered a blended model by one of our regional partners.
Led by experienced mentors, the sessions are interactive, collaborative, and designed to stretch pupils mathematically. With flexible scheduling and online access, pupils can join from anywhere.
By extending enrichment beyond the classroom, Axiom Maths helps young people with the heart and head for maths realise the potential of their power.
- Pupils must live in the UK and attend a state-funded school.
- Pupils should be high prior attainers as the curriculum is designed to be academically stretching. Consequently, we think the programme is best suited to pupils who score 113 or higher in their KS2 SATs (or 111 if eligible for Pupil Premium).
- We are particularly keen to reach those pupils who would not typically have access to an opportunity like this, such as those eligible for Pupil Premium (PP), Pupil Development Grant (PDG) for Wales, or Pupil Equity Funding (PEF) for Scotland.
There is no cap on the number of pupil premium eligible pupils you can nominate but you can only nominate up to 3 non-PP eligible pupils. If you are nominating from selective state schools (e.g. Grammar schools), we are only accepting PP eligible pupils.
Once you have submitted your nominations, Axiom Maths, or one of our partner organisations who deliver maths circles on our behalf, will get in contact with the guardians via the details you provide. You must have gained approval from guardians to nominate their child and pass on their details before submitting this form.
You can find a template letter to send to guardians here.
The data you share will be processed in line with the U.K. General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Axiom Maths’ Data Protection Policies, to ensure the highest standards of privacy and security. Please ensure you have the required permissions for sharing student data, familiarise yourself with our Privacy Notices (here) and share this link with guardians.

Please note you will also need your school's URN (England and Wales), SEED (Scotland) or DENI (Northern Ireland) and the details of your school's Designated Safeguarding Lead (name, email and phone number) in order to fill out this form.
You will only need to fill this form out once as the pupil details section is repeatable - just click 'Nominate another pupil' at the bottom right each time.
