UNSW engages with primary and secondary education, administering several national and international academic competitions for school age children. These include:
* '''The Australian Schools Science Competition''' – International Competitions and Assessments for Schools (ICAS) is conducted by Educational Assessment Australia, UNSW Global Pty Limited.
* '''International Competitions and Assessments for Schools-Mathematics''' – International Competitions and Assessments for Schools (ICAS). From 2003 to 2005, ICAS-Mathematics was called Australasian Schools Mathematics Assessment. Prior to 2003, it was known as the Primary Schools Mathematics Competition and was targeted at primary schools.
* '''The UNSW School Mathematics Competition'''<ref>{{cite web |url = http://www.maths.unsw.edu.au/highschool/school-mathematics-competition |title = The UNSW School Mathematics Competition |website = Maths.unsw.edu.au |access-date = 2 November 2016 |archive-date = 4 November 2016 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20161104000424/http://www.maths.unsw.edu.au/highschool/school-mathematics-competition |url-status = live }}</ref> – Since 1962, the School of Mathematics and Statistics has run the UNSW School Mathematics Competition. This competition is a three-hour open book Olympiad-style exam designed to assess mathematical insight and ingenuity rather than efficiency in tackling routine examples.  Competition results are used as part of the assessment criteria for some university scholarships awarded by the UNSW School of Mathematics and Statistics.
