<strong>Cranford</strong> students have been really impressive in Mathematics this year. In<br />
August our year 11 students received excellent GCSE results with 76% of<br />
students receiving grade 9 – 4 and 59% of students achieving grade 9 – 5, which<br />
was a 6% improvement on the previous year 11 results. We are particularly<br />
proud of our students who achieved a grade 9: Mohsin Ahmed, Faisa Ali, Subhan<br />
Jaura, Ria Kalia, Aman Khan, Taniya Nizami, Ramez Rasikh, Onkar Riyat and<br />
Haroon Lukka, who gained the highest score in the school, despite taking his<br />
exam in year 10. We were also particularly impressed with year 13 students<br />
Ahmed Fadhluddin and Baljinder Padda, who both scored A* in A<br />
Level Mathematics and A in Further Mathematics.<br />
Our students have also performed particularly well this year in the<br />
UKMT Maths Challenges. In November 2018 students in year 11,12<br />
and 13 took the Senior Maths Challenge, with Haroon Lukka gaining<br />
a Gold Award, Teodor Jevtic, Rhea Rana and Subhan Jaura gaining<br />
a Silver Award, and Jeevithan Thilaganathan, Maeve D’Souza,<br />
Sukhjinder Padda and Neha Hussain gaining a Bronze Award. In<br />
February <strong>2019</strong> this was followed by students in year 9,10 and 11<br />
achieving excellent results in the Intermediate Challenge. We are<br />
happy to announce outstanding results, with Haroon Lukka, Samha Lund, Neha Hussain, Nirujan Rajakumar,<br />
Elina Gorjunova, Hamza Abdullahi and Ahmed Ali all gaining Gold Awards. There were also 13 students<br />
who achieved Silver Awards and 23 Bronze Awards. April <strong>2019</strong> was the turn of students in year 7 and 8<br />
to shine in the Junior Maths Challenge. This time Musa Raza, Nancy Harkous, Ishmeet Singh, Mohamed<br />
Abdullahi, Hamidi Subhan and Krithik Balamuganthan all received Silver Awards and a further 15 students<br />
received Bronze Awards. We are very proud of all the students who took part in all three Maths Challenges.<br />
In addition, we had two teams participate in regional Team Maths Challenges, competing against a variety<br />
of state schools and independent schools from London and the South East. Firstly, our superb senior team of<br />
Rhea Rana (year 13), Teodor Jevtic (year 13), Onkar Riyat (year 12) and Haroon Lukka (year 11), travelled<br />
to St Paul’s school in Barnes in December 2018 and came 5th out of 23 schools. This success was followed<br />
in March <strong>2019</strong> when our junior team, consisting of Arushi Varshney (year 9), Prantanil Bhowmick (year<br />
9), Nancy Harkous (year 8) and Rui De Silva (year 8) attended the Junior Maths challenge at West London<br />
Free School in Hammersmith. We would like to congratulate both of our teams on the superb attitude<br />
they displayed while representing the school, and for the fantastic amount of effort they put in, meeting<br />
afterschool for weeks before their competitions to practise and hone their mathematical skills.<br />
