A HEAD for figures has added up to success for bright light Damon Watts.

The Swansea schoolboy was in a class of his own in a maths competition run amongst the city's schools.

They answered almost two million questions in seven days on the maths website Sumdog, as part of a Swansea Council drive to promote numeracy and literacy. Some even gave up their break times to take part.

Pontybrenin Primary School, the overall winner with an average score of 3,634 points, will receive a trophy and more than £500 worth of software.

And Damon was the overall individual winner with an impressive score of 101,463 points.

"Sumdog is awesome," he said. "It makes maths fun and I get to play against my friends and other pupils across the world."

Schools to score an average of at least 1,000 points were: Danygraig Primary School; Daniel James Community School; Morriston Comprehensive School; Glyncollen Primary School; Oystermouth Primary School; and St Thomas Primary Community School.

The top 10 students will get medals.
