  Leading maths at any school is a unique challenge and comes with pressures not experienced in many other subject areas. The relatively abstract nature of the subject content, combined with the contrasting societal and parental attitudes to mathematics, can complicate communication and stifle progress. Most pupils and parents will recognise the importance of maths but many feel it's perfectly acceptable to be "no good" at it. Leading maths in schools is about managing these contradictions and getting the very best out of every teacher and pupil.
  Offering a fresh perspective and practical strategies for maths teachers and leaders at any level, Leading Mathsexplores how to make the most of a maths leadership role and manage the daily pressures and demands that come with it. Backed up by specific examples from fifteen years of experience leading maths, Peter Mattock goes on to examine the more long-term, strategic view of maths leadership, including how leaders can work with their teams to develop high quality mathematics teaching and learning for all pupils.
  The book covers day-to-day issues that arise when leading maths, in particular results and accountability, as well as difficult situations more generally. It offers useful takeaways at the end of each chapter, with a summary of key points and advice from the chapter. Leading Maths explores how to manage an inspection, developing improvement plans and the appraisal process, before touching on taking maths leadership beyond one specific school and into system leadership.
  In addition to Peter's insight, Leading Maths also contains contributions from other experienced maths practitioners, including Becky Lawrence, Jemma Sherwood, Rhiannon Rainbow and Dave Tushingham. Becky examines some of the specific approaches to leading primary maths, whilst Jemma does the same from her perspective as a maths lead across a large multi-academy trust. Rhiannon and Dave then go on to discuss how to manage significant change from their experience of adapting curriculum and CPD during the COVID pandemic - including the beginnings of their (now famous) book club.
  An essential guide for current, new, or aspiring maths leaders.

  If you grew up before the neurodiversity movement, chances are you were taught at an early age that your autistic traits were "wrong" or "bad." Whether it was stimming, difficulties with making small talk, avoiding eye contact, sensitivities to loud sounds or certain textures, or even talking passionately about the things you care about—somewhere along the way you learned to mask these aspects of yourself to better fit in, avoid bullying from other kids, and in some cases to even gain the love of your own parents. The problem is that, over time, masking can lead to higher levels of stress, burnout, emotional dysregulation, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, and depression. So how can you be your authentic self and still succeed and thrive in a neurotypical world? 
   
   
   
  Written by a therapist who is actually autistic, this neurodiversity-affirming workbook offers skills to help you cultivate self-acceptance, manage intense emotions, and be your own advocate when needed. You'll take a good look at the situations or people that caused you to mask in the first place. 
   
   
    
  You don't have to mask, hide, or camouflage any longer. Let this workbook guide you on a journey of self-discovery and acceptance. You are worthy of it. And you deserve it.

  Tao Te Ching

  Laozi Laozi

  "The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao."
  
  In a world of constant striving and noise, the Tao Te Ching offers a radical alternative: the path of the "Way." Laozi's cryptic yet beautiful verses explore the paradoxes of existence, teaching that true power comes from yielding, and true wisdom comes from silence. This is not just a book of philosophy; it is a practical guide to reclaiming your natural state of being. By understanding the flow of the universe, one can navigate life's challenges with effortless grace and profound peace.
  
  The Concept of Wu Wei (Effortless Action): The central tenet of the text is Wu Wei, often translated as "non-action" or "effortless doing." Laozi argues that like water—which is the softest substance yet can wear away the hardest stone—we are most effective when we stop forcing our will upon the world and instead align ourselves with the natural flow of the "Tao."
  
  The Three Treasures: Laozi identifies three core virtues for a meaningful life: Compassion, Frugality, and Humility. The Tao Te Ching suggests that by stripping away the complications of ego and desire, we return to the "Uncarved Block"—our original, pure, and potent nature.
  
  A Guide for Leadership and Life: Unlike many political treatises, the Tao Te Ching advocates for a leader who governs with a light touch, trusting in the people and the natural order. Its wisdom is equally applicable to the CEO, the artist, or the seeker, providing a timeless sanctuary for anyone looking to simplify their life and find their center.

  First published in 1927, Aspects of the Novel by E. M. Forster remains one of the most influential works of literary criticism in the English language. Based on a series of lectures delivered at Cambridge University, Forster explores the essential elements that define the novel — story, people, plot, fantasy, prophecy, pattern, and rhythm. 
  With wit, clarity, and intellectual warmth, Forster examines the craft of novelists from Jane Austen and Charles Dickens to Tolstoy and Dostoevsky, offering insights into what makes fiction come alive on the page. His timeless reflections challenge rigid forms of analysis, inviting readers and writers alike to approach the novel as both an art and an exploration of human experience. 
  This classic guide to understanding fiction is as engaging today as when it was first delivered, a must-listen for students of literature, aspiring writers, and lovers of storytelling.
