Summary

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.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
West Nile Virus - Basics to Mastery guides you from first encounter with a mosquito-borne flaviviral infection to confident, nuanced decision-making. Clear explanations unpack how West Nile circulates between birds and Culex mosquitoes, why humans and horses are usually dead-end hosts, and what drives the spectrum from silent infection to life-threatening neuroinvasive disease. Because there is currently no licensed human vaccine and treatment is mainly supportive, you will see why prevention hinges on reducing mosquito exposure and recognizing early warning signs in those at higher risk. Along the way you follow realistic late-summer scenarios—from a young adult with West Nile fever to an older patient with encephalitis—to see how epidemiology, clinical clues, and basic lab data fit together. Designed for students, clinicians, veterinarians, and public health professionals, this book emphasizes evidence-based practice, practical prevention strategies, and respectful communication with worried families while always reminding readers that it cannot replace individualized medical advice from qualified providers. 
✓ Stepwise introduction to virology, immunology, and vector biology tailored to West Nile rather than generic mosquito-borne infections. 
✓ Clear algorithms for triage, diagnostic testing, and interpretation, including when to suspect neuroinvasive disease and involve specialists. 
✓ Up-to-date synthesis of global and regional epidemiology, risk factors, and seasonal patterns, with tips for reading surveillance reports critically. 
✓ Practical prevention playbook covering personal protection, household mosquito control, and community-level vector management strategies. 
✓ Ready-to-use teaching tools: summary tables, memory aids, and case-based questions that reinforce learning from basics through advanced mastery.

    The developing brains of our children need to "feel" safe. 
 
 
 
Children who carry chronic behavioral challenges are often met with reactive and punitive practices that can potentially reactivate the developing stress response systems. 
 
 
 
This book deeply addresses the need for coregulatory and relational touch point practices, shifting student-focused behavior management protocols to adult regulated brain and body states which are brain aligned, preventive, and relational discipline protocols. This new lens for discipline benefits all students by reaching for sustainable behavioral changes through brain state awareness rather than compliance and obedience.

    Why Privacy Matters

    Everywhere we look, companies and governments are spying on us—seeking information about us and everyone we know. Ad networks monitor our web—surfing to send us "more relevant" ads. Databases of human information are assembled for purposes of "training" artificial intelligence programs designed to predict everything from traffic patterns to the location of undocumented migrants. We're even tracking ourselves, using personal electronics like Apple watches, Fitbits, and other gadgets. As Mark Zuckerberg once put it, "the Age of Privacy is over." But Zuckerberg and others who say "privacy is dead" are wrong. In Why Privacy Matters, Neil Richards explains that privacy isn't dead, but rather up for grabs. 
 
 
 
Richards shows how the fight for privacy is a fight for power that will determine what our future will look like, and whether it will remain fair and free. Privacy matters because good privacy rules can promote the essential human values of identity, power, freedom, and trust. If we want to preserve our commitments to these precious yet fragile values, we will need privacy rules. Richards explains why privacy remains so important and offers strategies that can help us protect it from the forces that are working to undermine it. Pithy and forceful, this is a must-listen for anyone interested in a topic that sits at the center of so many current problems.
