Besides, you can actually access the contents of our Telegram channel without having a Telegram account. Just open your web browser and visit t.me/gohmaths.

If you are a teacher teaching at a primary school, secondary school or pre-university college in Malaysia, you can promote our official Telegram channel by sharing this announcement with other school mathematics teachers in Malaysia who are interested in mathematical events. If you are a student studying at a primary school, secondary school or pre-university college in Malaysia, you can inform your friends (other students in Malaysia) who love mathematics about the Telegram channel of our mathematics competition.

The Benedict Goh Malaysia Schools Mathematics Championships is a mathematics competition that held annually since 2017, with the exception of 2020. The main objective of the championship is to spark an interest in mathematics among the school students by presenting them with interesting mathematical problems. At the same time, the championship also aims at popularising the beauty of mathematics among the young people. Therefore, this championship is open to all the primary school, secondary school and pre-university students in Malaysia, and each school can send as many participants as desired.

‘The 6th Benedict Goh Malaysia Schools Mathematics Championship 2023’ will be back to face-to-face at school. Paper-based championship (with online submission of answers by students after the competition) will be held face-to-face at school from 8th to 11th of August, 2023.

We hope to receive a tremendous response from schools, parents and students around Malaysia.

Some important championship details that you need to know are as the following:

Please note that all the students who wish to participate in this mathematics championship must have a device (e.g. laptop, computer, smartphone, tablet) and an Internet connection. Even for paper-based mode competition at school, devices and Internet connection are also required, because the students will need to submit their answers online after the 1 hour 30 minutes competition time. 

The organiser will provide awards such as medals and certificates for the winners of the competition. Each participant will receive a printed certificate of participation. The logo of the Benedict Goh Mathematics Championships will be printed on all the certificates issued by us.
