The news today is concentrating on UK students performance in maths, and how the students in countries like China, Korea and Japan seem to be doing much better.
Why not have a go at some of the test questions and see how you can do?

This is what the Guardian has to say about it. The OECD believe their results show that boys are better at maths than girls. Do you think this is true? Over the many years I have taught maths I have not found a great difference between the sexes, but I do acknowledge that the boys generally find shape and space activities such as working with nets of three dimensional shapes easier.
