Maths Inside

Maths inside is returning for Maths Week Scotland 2024! Maths inside is a photo competition open to everyone in Scotland. The categories this year are: in the wild, and the ‘why’ of shapes. Can you see the maths inside?

Maths is part of our daily life, have you ever thought about it? The home, exercise route, daily dog walks and the weekly shop turned into a playground… this is your chance to get creative and make mathematical connections!

Submit your photos with the maths inside sticker on them to enter the competition. You can enter up to three photos, one per category. Entries will be accepted from Sunday 1st September until 11:59pm on Monday 30th September 2024, with an online prize ceremony at 11am on Saturday 2nd November.

Visit the maths inside website for further details about the competition, information on how to submit your entries, and the full terms & conditions.
