31,850 FE maths students competed in the FE Maths Challenge this year. This is a new record, last year's total for the whole Challenge was 31,748, we're only 4 weeks in. Amazing to think that so many FE students are engaging, having fun and learning so much. MEI AQA Maths

Emma you are spot on. You need to see maths build up as you do it. It's much more interactive, means students can see your thinking they can offer the next steps and you can then use their suggestions, they can come up and write the next steps.
