The Russian team showed an impeccable result at the 66th International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), which ended in the Sunshine Coast (Australia). Six participants representing our country won 5 gold and 1 silver medal. Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko and Minister of Education Sergey Kravtsov congratulated the schoolchildren and their mentors on their success at the prestigious intellectual tournament.
"Our country is the birthplace of a whole galaxy of outstanding mathematicians. We are sincerely glad that modern schoolchildren continue these glorious traditions and show high results. Our President Vladimir Putin emphasizes the importance of high-quality teaching and the enthusiasm of schoolchildren for mathematics. We thank teachers and mentors for their knowledge and support of children in developing their talents, and the schoolchildren themselves – for a reason to be proud of their success. Congratulations on your medals and I wish you the realization of your talents and a worthy application of your knowledge in the future," said the Deputy Prime Minister.
Russia is among the top ten countries in terms of quality of education and among the top three in international Olympiads. The number of medals, including gold, is growing.
Taking into account the awards at the International Mathematical Olympiad, Russian students won 16 medals at the main international Olympiads and 52 at intermediate (training) ones in 2025.
This year, more students chose to take exams in the natural sciences. Thus, there is an increase in the number of participants in the 2025 Unified State Exam in natural sciences: specialized mathematics, computer science, physics, chemistry, biology.
The head of the Ministry of Education noted that the medals are a fair reward for their talent, hard work and perseverance.
"I congratulate you on your successful participation in the 66th International Mathematical Olympiad. I am sincerely glad that in a fair fight with peers from different countries you demonstrated excellent preparation, team unity and the will to win. Your results are a true sign of the quality of the Russian education system and the national mathematical school. Special words of gratitude go to the teachers, coaches, mentors and relatives who share with you the joy of this well-deserved victory," emphasized Sergey Kravtsov.
