      abstract = {This book is about the promotion of all-attainment  teaching in the mathematics classroom. The book contains  the individual stories of six teachers working in three  different schools: an inner London comprehensive with a  largely working class intake, a comprehensive on the south  coast and a rural comprehensive in Cambridgeshire. Each  story describes and explains in brief the background of the  teacher and how each came to teach all-attainment groups in  mathematics. The research reported in this book is the only  close examination and analysis of the practices and  methodologies of successful all-attainment educators in the  modern age. Three major themes are identified and examined:  what sustains the teachers; how they introduce, develop and  maintain all-attainment teaching; and how they make  all-attainment work in the classroom. From an analysis of  these findings, the book presents two interrelated models  of the knowledge and understandings the research has  generated. The first one is an overarching model of  situation and horizon. Used as a means of visualizing and  understanding the current situation for teachers, it can  aid in encouraging change for the better. The second model  offers teachers a way to think of all-attainment teaching  as an enabler for all students, most especially for  disadvantaged students. Both models have original and  explanatory power and offer new ways of conceptualizing how  mathematics teaching for social justice might be understood  and implemented, offering fresh perspectives and unique  insights. As such it will be of help to students at  undergraduate, Masters and doctoral level and to education  researchers more widely.},
