The Nuffield Foundation is convening an event to showcase and explore the findings from some of the key maths and numeracy projects that the Foundation has funded over recent years. This showcase will include presentations from six Nuffield-funded studies that have been investigating maths and numeracy in the early years and primary phases of education.
Chaired by Lynne McClure, Director of Cambridge Maths, this event will provide an important opportunity to consider how the findings of the six Nuffield-funded studies fit within the wider context and identify areas for further research that would help practitioners and policy makers support the development of numeracy.
