Olympiads and competitions for Classes 1–11
Four academically structured programmes, each with a clear purpose: go deeper in mathematics, build reasoning, master through practice, or bring the olympiad into your school.
Aryabhatta Maths Olympiad
To recognise and nurture mathematical talent through a two-stage olympiad that rewards careful, stepwise thinking on classroom topics — not speed or recall.

REAL Olympiad
To develop and measure the reasoning, logic and aptitude skills that no single school subject teaches — but every competitive path demands.

Ramanujan Maths Quiz
To build mathematical mastery through a series of tests, and to give every child — and their teachers — a detailed diagnostic picture of strengths and areas to improve.

UNITE Olympiad
To bring the olympiad experience into the school itself: an inter-school and inter-group maths and reasoning event, scheduled around each school's calendar, that celebrates achievers at every level.
Dates, syllabus, awards and FAQHow our papers are different
Many olympiads test how fast a child can recall. Ours test how well a child can think. Three principles shape every Unlock IQ paper:
- Same-class topics, greater depth. Questions stay within the child's own classroom syllabus but ask for application, connection and multi-step reasoning rather than one-step recall.
- Every question teaches something. Papers are designed so that reviewing them afterwards is itself a learning exercise, with stepwise solutions in our practice material.
- Success is structured, not scarce. From performance certificates to distinction medals to trophies, recognition is layered so effort at every level is acknowledged — while top honours remain genuinely earned.
