World Maths Day 2018 – British International School’s Year 8 Students 5th in the world

At the time when the British International School in Belgrade enters the third decade of its operation, the BS students are continuing to achieve success at international competitions.

BIS students from Reception through to Year 10 all took part in the recent World Maths Day, once again organised by 3P Learning and using the Mathletics online programme.

All our students enjoyed the event, playing online against almost four million students throughout the world in one-minute arithmetic challenges.

Our Year 8 students, working as a team, had a fantastic result coming in 5th in the world which was an extraordinary achievement. Several of our other classes appeared in the Top 100 in the world for their age group.Year 5 took the 91st, Year 6 took 96th, Year 7took 25th and Years 9/10 took 45th places in the world.

Our students have had great success at World Education Games in past years as well. In 2012 our student Cameron was chosen as one of the two student ambassadors for Europe and in the same year our student Marija came first in the world in spelling at the same competition.

We look forward to the next time this event takes place.
