Outreach activities

Part of my role on the School's Admissions and Recruitment Committee involves organising, and running, various outreach activities for local schools, colleges and sixth form centres. Since 2009 I have visited many local schools, and attended events, to give talks and run activities - including:

• "The storm of the century!"
• "The Pepsi Challenge: can you tell the difference?"
• "The truth behind speed cameras: regression to the mean"
• "Who's the thief? Bayesian Statistics and the lie detector test"
• "Oceans of Opportunity: careers in Marine Science"
• "Life as a Maths student at Newcastle University"
• "A Future in Mathematics (Grammar School Nicosia, 2019)"
• "The storm of the century! (Grammar School Nicosia, 2019)"
• "A Future in Mathematics (American Academy Nicosia, 2019)"

These talks have been delivered as one hour hands-on workshops, full afternoon workshops, guest lectures (e.g. the Royal Institution Master Class series) and talks at advice sessions for sixth-formers. Material ranges from topics accessible to year 8 students right through to sixth form students. Please contact me for further details, or see the section on our School's webpage.
