Core offering

Australian Maths Trust develops and runs mathematics, computational thinking and informatics competitions, olympiad pathways and curriculum-enrichment programs for school students. Schools and registered home schools enrol students and pay per-student entry fees through the AMT portal; individual students cannot register independently. The organisation also prepares and selects Australian teams for international olympiads and provides teacher resources via the Problemo platform.

Product overview

Australian Maths Trust offers a comprehensive portfolio of mathematics and computational thinking competitions and programs for primary and secondary school students. The core offerings include six unique competition events (AMC, KSF, Bebras, CAT, RPFCC, AIO, AIMO) and two long-form in-school programs (Maths Challenge, Maths Enrichment). These are complemented by Olympiad pathway programs including AMO, AIIO, FARIO, and the Curious Minds invitational program. The Problemo platform serves as a teaching resource hub. The organization also delivers international competitions including Kangourou sans Frontières and Bebras, reaching hundreds of thousands of students annually.

Direct peers

• Mathematical Association of America: Runs the AMC, AIME, USAMO, and US-JMO competitions in the United States. The closest functional analogue to AMT, delivering school-level math competitions feeding into the US IMO/IOI pipeline.
• United Kingdom Mathematics Trust: Operates the UK Mathematical Olympiad, Senior/Intermediate/Junior Challenges, and Kangourou in the UK. Closest national-level equivalent delivering school maths competitions and Olympiad selection.
• Art of Problem Solving: Provides competition math textbooks, online courses, and a community forum for Olympiad preparation. Overlaps with AMT's training/preparation layer and Problemo platform.
• Center for Excellence in Education: Operates the USA Computing Olympiad (USACO), the US counterpart to AMT's Australian Informatics Olympiad (AIO), running informatics competitions feeding the US IOI team.

Regional players

• Singapore Mathematical Society: Runs the Singapore Mathematical Olympiad and Singapore Informatics Olympiad. Comparable national Olympiad body serving a different geography with similar products.
• Canadian Mathematical Society: Operates the Canadian Mathematical Olympiad and Canadian Computing Competition. Another national math/informatics competition body with structural similarities to AMT.
• Mathematical Olympiad Foundation (India): Runs the Indian National Mathematical Olympiad and informatics pathways. National-level Olympiad administration with a much larger participant base but similar school-competition model.

Broad incumbents

• Kangourou sans Frontières Association: International umbrella organisation that coordinates KSF, the global maths competition AMT helped inspire and continues to operate nationally. AMT is both a member and the Australian licence-holder.

Emerging players

• Brilliant.org: Direct-to-consumer STEM problem-solving platform with competitions and learning content. Competes with AMT for student engagement time and teacher adoption in the enrichment space.
• Codeforces: Competitive programming platform hosting informatics contests that compete with AMT's AIO and RPFCC for advanced student coders, though without a school-distribution layer.
