More than 200 pupils at Downham High School were shown the importance of maths in everyday life during a visit by the BAE Systems and RAF Roadshow, in May 2013.
All the Year 7 pupils attended a presentation and 30 took part in the workshops.
The school’s careers co-ordinator, Katherine Potter, said it was the second year the roadshow had visited the Bexwell Road school. She added: “The children gain a view of how maths is applied to problem-solving in real life instead of just being a subject in school.”
Among those taking part in a workshop were, from left, Molly McNama, Davina Hurrell, Laney Beth Eateen, Vytautas Balaisis and Josh Nelson.
