Sixth Form Trip
Winton Gallery / the Science Museum
After
MATHS
months of virtual learning, mock exams and UCAS applications,
20 Year 12 Mathematics and Further Maths students were
selected to visit the Winton Gallery at the Science Museum on 9th July 2021.
These students, among many others, had demonstrated hard-work, diligence and
resilience throughout the academic year. The trip provided them with an insight
about the importance and everyday use of mathematics. Some examples included
the importance of mathematics within economics, statistics, computing, philosophy,
trade, war and architecture.

On our short yet productive trip to The Winton
Gallery, we were able to witness how maths is
used in real life more often than we would imagine
first-hand. For example, we got to see the Elliott
401 computer which was used to analyse insect
damage as well as to work in the mathematics
of genetics, emphasising the limitless uses of
maths, all the way from 1954 until now. We had
the opportunity to look around the gallery at
our own pace and look at many artefacts which
extended our knowledge about war and trade, all
in relation to maths. This opportunity allowed us to expand our interest in
maths as a subject as well as give us a genuine insight into how it can be
applied to the world around us and understand why it is such an important
factor. It was also a perfect chance for us as sixth formers to see if we were
interested in studying maths in higher education and perhaps pursuing a
career in this field. Getting to visit The Winton Gallery was definitely a
valuable opportunity and further sparked my interest in going on to study
maths at university.
