Teachers of all school subjects have an important role to play in developing the numeracy capabilities of students. However, to fully exploit the numeracy learning opportunities that exist in the subjects they teach, teachers need to have an identity as a teacher of numeracy. In this paper some findings are presented from a two-year study designed…

The paper aims to discuss subversion in an intellectual, moral and political…
