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...

Published in 2007, this briefing paper highlights the main findings from the small pilot undertaken with just 14 schools in six LAs during 2005–06 which targeted underachievement in these schools and focused on various possible  strategies to tackle this issue.  
 

These easy to use resources, for pupils aged five to seven, from Barefoot Computing provide cross-curricular lesson plans and activities that integrate computing into the delivery of another topic. In addition, ...

This collection contains electronic versions of the summative assessments in the Teach Computing Curriculum for KS2, covering 11 topics...

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:

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 KS3 learners. The resources include:

These posters from the National Physical Laboratory are ideal for the key stage three classroom.

• The accuracy and precision poster explains the difference between the two concepts. These ideas are equally applicable for key stages four and five.
• The sound poster explains the terminology of...

The story of the Siemens brothers, and their involvement in the invention and development of innovative and groundbreaking technology, provides the stimulus for these resources designed for learners aged 5 to 11.

The collection includes two 'six for six' modules which provide ideas for a programme of study...

These posters from the National Physical Laboratory are ideal for the key stage two classroom and cover the seven SI base units.

Three shapes constructed from cubes are presented. The challenge is to find the smallest ‘keyhole’ that the blocks will fit through, provided ‘turning’ is not allowed. This resource is suitable for Key Stage 3 and could be used as an extension to the topic of 2D representations of 3D shapes.

Work done in this Nuffield 13 - 16 module followed from the B units called ‘Communities and populations’ and ‘Charged particles’. This S unit provided enough material for eight double periods during a single-certificate science course. The teachers’ guide included four...

The student books and teacher books in the Keys to Chemistry series were written by Graham Hill and published in the 1970s. The series explained chemistry for students aged 11–16. Each student book was accompanied by a book for teachers. Book 1 covered the chemistry in an introductory secondary school course. Book...

Keys to Chemistry Book 1 was the basis for an introductory course of chemistry in secondary school. The book is a reflection of chemistry teaching in the 1970s, following the Nuffield developments in the previous decade.
