Launched in 2005 and funded by the Department for Education, Teachers TV was originally a television channel which aimed to provide support for both new and experienced teachers, school leaders, support staff and governors. Many of the programmes were filmed inside real classrooms, with teachers sharing good...

The Nuffield Mathematics Project Teachers' Guides cover the topics of computation and structure, shape and size, and graphs leading to algebra. The books do not cover years, or indeed any specific time; they simply develop themes and therefore show the teacher how to allow one child to progress at a different pace...

The 1998 National Curriculum gave rise to new emphases in both algebra and geometry and to the place of using ICT to develop mathematical thinking. These resources from the National Strategies were developed to tackle these aspects of the curriculum.
