ATL Comment On The Study Into Trends In International Maths And Science

9 December 2008

Commenting on England’s position in the study, Dr Mary Bousted, general secretary of the Association of Teachers and Lecturers (ATL), said:

“We congratulate maths teachers for the continued improvement in their pupils' performance. The doom-mongers who undersell English schools have been proved wrong, as we out-performed most countries in maths and science in 2007.

“We know a lot of work still needs to be done, particularly to change children’s attitude to maths, however, this survey confirms taxpayers’ money is being well-spent in our schools.”
