Sixth Form Students at Bolton School have enjoyed an outstanding year at the British Chemistry Olympiad 2013.
Three students, Hannah Cooper, Joseph Ayathamattam and Daniel Hurt, received Gold certificates – awarded to just 7% of the 4574 candidates from all over the UK who entered the competition this year.
Bolton School pupils also picked up three Silver certificates, awarded to 28% of candidates, and two Bronze certificates, awarded to 32% of candidates.
Each year the brightest Sixth Form pupils enter the Chemistry Olympiad - a challenging written test of chemical knowledge. The questions posed often stimulate much debate on, and enthusiasm for, chemistry - raising awareness of what the subject is all about. Tackling the paper also provides a good opportunity to develop some of the skills required for study at university and beyond. Congratulations to all who took part.
