The challenge is designed to foster and develop critical thinking skills by asking pupils to focus on analysis, deduction, and hypothesis formation as opposed to the recall of taught material. Pupils engaged with data, graphs, and text to make deductions, spot trends, suggest hypotheses, and identify anomalous results.

Any pupil that scores in the top 10%, 25% or 40% across the country receives a certificate, either gold, silver, or bronze respectively.

15 Swanmore pupils secured a Bronze certificate, 8 achieved silver and 5 attained gold. Well done to all that took part. We are looking forward to next year already!
