Free Maths Olympiad Practice Games

School maths Olympiads, such as the SOF International Mathematics Olympiad (IMO), challenge children with logical reasoning and maths puzzles beyond everyday classwork. Our free games build exactly that kind of thinking: patterns, logic, mental maths and problem solving.

Tips for parents

  • Do a few puzzle questions every day rather than long sessions before the exam.
  • Read each question twice. Many Olympiad questions include a small twist.
  • Ask your child to explain their reasoning, especially for patterns and codes.
  • Revise the whole syllabus for your class, not only the hardest topics.
