This item is one of over 25,000 physical resources available from the Resources Collection. The Archive Collection covers over 50 years of curriculum development in the STEM subjects. The Contemporary Collection includes the latest publications from UK educational publishers.

In this resource, from the DfES Standards Unit, students learn to define a sequence using the
general form of the nth term, define a sequence inductively, recognise and define an arithmetic and a geometric progression and to reflect on and discuss these processes. Students should have some understanding of...

National Health Service celebrates it's birthday on 5 July.

When it was founded in 1948, the NHS was the first universal health system to be available to all, free at the point of delivery. Since then, the NHS has delivered Britain’s first heart transplant in 1958, Europe’s first liver transplant in 1968, ...

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

Students calculate the...

In this Core Maths activity students explore APR, the interest charged when we borrow money, and how to calculate it for both a whole number and a fractional number of years. The resource also explores reasons why people want to borrow money.

A link is included to the Nuffield Foundation personal finance...

A segment of a circle is created using a chord parallel to the x-axis. The resulting segment of the circle is then revolved 360° about the x-axis. The problem is to calculate the volume of the resulting annulus.

To find a general solution to the problem involves using an elemental disc ring and integrating...

This resource from the Nuffield Foundation allows students to investigate relationships between anthropometric variables and write a report on their findings, which may include the use of scatter diagrams, lines of best fit, regression lines, and correlation coefficients. The spreadsheet contains anthropometric...

In this Core Maths task, based on a resource developed by the Nuffield Foundation, students are given a large dataset of children’s and young adults’ anthropometric data to use to investigate whether particular sets of data are related. The students are asked to present their findings in the form of a report/...

The project involved members of staff from the STEM subjects at the Kingswinford School working collaboratively to plan and deliver sessions to a group of Year Nine students. These sessions were held after school for an hour each week during the summer and autumn terms...

This textbook of Pure Mathematics is written to meet the needs of the student studying for the General Certificate of Education at Advanced Level. The book assumes a knowledge of mathematics up to Ordinary Level, and...

Alongside its companion book covering Pure Mathematics, this is a traditional A level Mathematics text book in use in the '70s and '80s in UK Schools. It covers all of the material needed for the Applied Mathematics 

This book provides an elementary study of the classical subject matter of Dynamics, Statics and Hydrostatics using the new scheme of SI units. The standard and content of the work covers C.S.E....

The sixth edition of this book continues teaching numerical analysis and techniques. Suitable for students with mathematics and engineering backgrounds, the breadth of topics (partial differential equations, systems of nonlinear equations, and matrix algebra), provide comprehensive and flexible coverage of...

This book provides a sound grounding in the theoretical basis and in the practice of significance tests. With the aid of worked examples and set tests, the author deals comprehensively with the basic elementary sampling theory and the logic underlying significance tests, discussing in detail the interpretation of...
