requires students to convert values given in pence into pounds, add mixtures of pounds and pence together, calculate the amount of change to give and solve a variety of problems expressed in words.

This collection of Level 1 resources from Nuffield Mathematics covers Money management. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in Foundation Level GCSE and Level 1 Functional Mathematics.

In this activity students are required to write money values as a decimal, represent this value in a grid showing the place value of each digit and then write the value in words.

This resource shows what the lights on the front of the SAMHE monitor mean, so that students and teachers can understand what the air quality is indoors. Included is the A4 'Monitor LEDs' poster which provides an overview of what the LEDs on the front of your SAMHE monitor tell you about CO₂ levels, what...

From the National STEM Learning Centre, this short video illustrates the effect of gravity on a projectile's motion by using a classic physics demonstration called the Monkey and the Hunter. If a hunter fires horizontally at a monkey in a tree, and simultaneously the monkey releases their grip to fall off the tree...

On July 20, 1969, the astronaut Neil Armstrong was the first human to set foot on the moon. From NASA, these images illustrate the story behind "One small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind." Truly a milestone moment in space exploration.

These secondary level resources support the Moon Camp Challenge.

The Moon Camp Challenge is an educational and inspirational project run by ESA and Airbus Foundation, in partnership with Autodesk. These supporting classroom activities focus on learning-by-design and science experimentation. Students will develop a number of scientific experiments related to the Moon and apply...

More Maths Grads was a three-year project funded by the Higher Education Funding Council for England to develop, trial and evaluate means of increasing the number of students studying mathematics and encouraging participation from groups of learners who have not traditionally been well represented in higher...

Produced by More Maths Grads, these bright posters are intended for use in schools to illustrate the range of opportunities that mathematics can open. These include the aerospace industry, architecture, navigation technologies, biological sciences, music and sport.

Based on information and guides provided by the Department of Transport, this Cre8ate maths activity introduces the cost benefits of improving the aerodynamics of the cab section of a truck. Mathematical connections involve using calculators and spreadsheets to work on conversions and percentages in the context of...

• Describe the relationships between speed, frequency and wavelength for light waves.
• Describe the nature of light as a form of electromagnetic radiation....
