The Challenge is now in its 6th year and is currently involving more schools than ever - such is the popularity of what it's all about!  The aim of the Challenge is simple; to help raise standards of achievement in mathematics across an age range of 9 to 16 and to show students of all abilities that maths can be fun!  Using software that simulates the setting up of a car that takes part in a race, students will encounter a variety of mathematical tasks (some practical) in an effort to win the race!
