I realise this may be OT in a couple of the NGs I cross-posted to. I hope
no-one minds too much - hopefully it's a one off..

Can anyone tell me what the best NGs are for UK based maths teachers. I had
a quick look on Google at the number of posts in recent days but couldn't
really decide where I was most likely to get (and give) useful information.

The kind of questions I've got in mind at the moment are:

a) are there any good statistical resources for KS3 citizenship?
b) are there any good Illustrated Keywords resources to support the National
Numeracy Strategy eg. a rhombus with a picture of a rhombus.

Thanks in advance

Paul

Was this a joke?
