INTERNATIONAL OLYMPIAD ACADEMY
Our education system has, for long, focused only on the core concepts that science and
mathematics can offer. This has spurred the need for an external platform that provides the
opportunity to apply these concepts and build a deep understanding of the core concepts
learned in school. Olympiads are competitive examinations conducted nationally and
internationally and have proved to be such platforms that allow students to test their mettle in
different subjects.
These exams focus on the application of concepts learned in the
classroom. The exams are designed in such a way that the students are
forced to apply multiple concepts simultaneously to arrive at the answers.
This not only sharpens their skill, it also builds in them the deep
appreciation of the subject.
We, at International Olympiad Academy, recognize the need for such
periodic tests that pushes the students out of their comfort zone and
helps them build them their logical reasoning and analytical abilities.
Our Olympiads, picks students from all across the globe to compete
against their peer groups. We aim to foster a healthy environment
which is competitive yet enriching.
We also provide mentoring programs that guide the students throughout the
process of preparing for such exams. Our mentors are highly qualified
professionals who have been a part of the education system for over twenty
years. Their extensive experience allows them to assess the potential of students quickly
and customize the program to mentor students with different capabilities in a manner that
suits each student exclusively. Currently in collaboration with HIPPO International Language
Competition, International Science Olympiad and Mathematical Kangaroo (also known as
International Mathematical Kangaroo, or Kangourou sans frontières in French), IOA aims to
identify young geniuses and bring out the best in them.

GRADE 5 &6
MATHEMATICAL KANGAROO
Mathematical Kangaroo (also known as International Mathematical Kangaroo, or Kangourou sans frontieres in French) is an international
mathematical competition held across 92 countries in the world. There are twelve levels of participation, ranging from grade 1 to grade 12. The
key competence tested by Mathematical Kangaroo is not just pure knowledge of formulas, but the logical combination of concepts.
The Competition was established in 1991 by Andre Deledicq, a Professor of Mathematics at the University of Paris, and Jean-Pierre Boudine,
Professor of Mathematics at Marseille. The idea comes from the Australian Mathematics Competition, initiated in 1978 by Peter O'Halloran. It is
based on multiple-choice questions (MCQs), which were rarely used in France at that time. For this competition, Jean-Pierre Boudine and
Andre Deledicq were awarded the 1994 d'Alembert prize of the Mathematical Society of France.
The competition has now spread around the world Students from Sweden first took part in 1999. By 2011, 860,000 students from 9,000
schools took part in Germany, having grown rapidly from 549,000 in 2007. In 2014, the competition was hosted in Latin America. In 2017,
the Bulgarian association held a week-long Kangaroo summer camp In Canada, math contest clubs for elementary school children teach
“questions typical of the Math Kangaroo contest”, starting with those with a visual component and helping to develop logic and spatial
reasoning. Students in Pakistan took part for the first time in 2005, the numbers increasing each year since. In 2009, the Pittsburgh PostGazette noted that the competition was very popular in Europe and was
“finding its way into the United States”. Denmark first participated in 2015. India participated for the first time in 2019 under the
banner of International Olympiad Academy.
