A presentation highlighting seven strategies for behaviour management.

This review, published by the Nuffield Foundation, presents a synthesis of research on mathematics learning by children from the age of five to the age of sixteen years and identifies the issues that are fundamental to understanding children’s mathematics learning. The report concentrates on three main questions...

These resources are provided by the Nuffield Foundation who, in 2007, commissioned a team from the University of Oxford to review the available research literature on how children learn mathematics. The resulting review is presented in a series of eight papers.

Paper 1 Overview - summarises...

This collection of resources provide maths challenges for students, set in the context of construction.

The story of the Siemens brothers, and their involvement in the invention and development of innovative and ground breaking technology, provides the stimulus for this set of resources designed for KS4 learners. The resources include:

This resource contains seven instant maths ideas for students to use LOGO to explore the properties of regular shapes, polygons and circles. Students write repeating procedures to explore the nature of tessellation when creating wallpaper designs and using problem solving skills to produce a simple animation. The...

The Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS) have produced a range of materials aimed at supporting teaching and learning in engineering. These resources cover a range of areas that demonstrate the benefits of active learning. They cover how to improve teaching and learning by developing the skills of...

The Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS) was created to support and improve achievement in the Further Education and Skills sector in England.

This collection contains a range of materials called 'Mathematical Moments' aimed at supporting teaching and learning in mathematics. The resources...

This mathematics book from the Shell Centre, The Language of Functions and Graphs, is now regarded as a classic book on the teaching and assessment of graph interpretation skills.

The Language of Functions and Graphs...

This report, produced by the Nuffield Foundation, is in response to the Tomlinson Working Group on 14–19 Reform, set up as an outcome of the Government paper, ‘14–19: Opportunity and excellence’. Nuffield’s conviction was that proposals to reform assessment can only be authoritative if they take account of the...

These datasets from stats4schools are compiled from the responses given by over 1,500 people to a survey. They are intended to be used flexibly but some ideas are given to guide students in their interrogations. There are three sheets in each set

1. Decoded data
2. An explanation of the questions...

This resource is part of a collection of Nuffield Maths resources that explore Algebra and Maths. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in Higher Level GCSE and Level 2 Functional Mathematics.

This activity introduces standard form and shows students how to use it in real life contexts. 

This resource is part of a collection of Nuffield Maths resources explores Data Handling. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in Higher Level GCSE and Level 2 Functional Mathematics.

Larks and owls is a very open investigation in which students may set their own statistical tasks based on sleep...

This resource is from a collection of Nuffield Maths resources exploring Hypothesis testing. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in GCE A level. The resources typically include slide shows to introduce the topics, student sheets and teacher notes, as well as other relevant resources.

Students are asked...

This task is designed to assess how well students understand estimation and working with measures of capacity.

An estimate is made of how often a tap drips. The first task is to work out how many times the tap drips in one week. An estimate is given for how many drops fill a 100 millilitre bottle and the...
