We are delighted to welcome you to Surrey Maths School, a new venture bringing the dynamic and inspiring ethos of a maths school to the brilliant young minds of Surrey and its surrounds.

We opened our doors to our first cohort of Y12 students in September 2024, and are so excited to be building a community of like-minded and inquisitive young people in a school focused around the values of Compassion, Integrity, Collaboration, Aspiration and Innovation.

This project, in partnership with the Learning Partners Academy Trust and the University of Surrey, means so much to us – we believe in the philosophy of widening participation and increasing access to mathematical sciences for all. The creation of this new hub of maths excellence in the South East region will bring together bright young mathematicians in a space where they can truly thrive, alongside a range of Outreach projects focused on inspiring students of all ages and working with teachers on a local and national scale. This is a unique opportunity to diversify the teaching of the mathematical sciences in our fantastic purpose-built building.

Surrey Maths School serves an expansive area.

We attract top young mathematicians from Surrey, Berkshire, Sussex, Hampshire, SE and SW London who love being part of the Surrey Maths School community and thrive in its environment.

We hope to attract our staff from these areas too, if not from further afield. The train lines into Guildford are excellent, and worth considering - SuMS’ permanent building is just a five minute walk from the train station.

As Chief Student Officer at the University of Surrey, I am proud to say that we are a passionate partner of the Surrey Maths School initiative.

Inspiring young minds to explore and excel at maths is not only good for a student’s progression, but it’s good for society too. Mathematics is fundamental to the world we live in, and we need more people with the analytical and problem-solving skills that an education founded on maths can bring.

Our university staff and students are working closely with Surrey Maths School, sharing their passion for maths and science, and helping to design and deliver an innovative, stimulating and world-class curriculum. We are excited to help realise the potential that the Surrey Maths School promises.
