Core design commitments

• every junior item is a word problem, including any number pattern or data task — no standalone arithmetic drill appears in a junior paper. Every candidate works independently and completes both parts of their category paper. No calculator is permitted. Working is expected for junior and senior analytical questions
• senior mental questions require final answers only. Mathematical reasoning earns credit independently of arithmetic accuracy where the rubric permits, and speed alone never decides the winner.

School as centre

a school is a supervised delivery centre, not an independent awarding body. It registers candidates, provides suitable rooms and follows the common timetable and security procedures. Navigations or its designated FRL assessment team controls the papers, marking keys, moderation and final published results. Candidates from non-centre schools may be allocated to a nearby registered centre where space and safeguarding arrangements permit.

Vision

confident, reasoned use of mathematics in everyday and unfamiliar situations. Mission: accessible school-centre assessment that recognises understanding, strategy and interpretation alongside accurate calculation.

Competency alignment

• C12 Analytical Problem Solving and C14 Quantitative & Data Reasoning are the primary competencies, supported by C01 Critical Thinking and C05 Academic Communication when the task produces the relevant evidence. Results describe this event
• awards do not automatically establish a framework proficiency level.
