Most of NUSTEM's programmes and activities portray STEM skills and knowledge in the context of the workplace, building students' vocabulary and confidence. Incorporating a careers-linked approach brings real benefit to your students, and helps you align your teaching with the Gatsby Careers Benchmarks.

For Secondary Schools we've developed a guide (and CPD) on careers-linked teaching approaches, including links to the key strategy and advice documents.

For Primary Schools we've worked with the NELEP to develop 'Careers in Initial Teacher Education'. This is a three session short course suitable for trainee and qualified teachers.

2022 Prize

Every year the British Society for the History of Mathematics gives prizes for the best essays or presentations on some aspect of the history of mathematics. Our School Plus competition is done in cooperation with the +Plus Magazine. We give awards to two age groups: 11-15 year olds and 16-19 old students. The competition is only open to those studying in schools in the UK and the Republic of Ireland.

This year we are asking you to write or make a presentation/film/song (or make a submission in any other medium) on an aspect of the history of applied mathematics. We would expect to learn something new or interesting about how mathematics and medicine for example interact, how mathematics and architecture or engineering are related. No topic in applied mathematics is off the limit, but your story of course has to relate to a real historical development or event. The submissions should be around 1000 words (or equivalent) in length.

There will be two first prizes (£100) in the above groups, and as many run-up prizes (£20 each) as we find appropriate. As a winner or a runner-up, apart from the financial reward, you will also get a certificate, and a free BSHM subscription for a year.

Enter your submission here. We will also very much look forward to reading / watching / hearing your submissions! The deadline is 15th July 2022 at midnight.
