Abstract

The work discussed here is part of an international study involving Dutch, Belgian, German, Greek, Finnish and Slovenian as well as English children aged between 52 and 98 months. The project is coordinated by the University of Utrecht and employs the Utrecht Early Mathematical Competence Test. The full international data set is currently being analysed. This paper reports only the analysis of the English data, together with some international data already in the public domain. The data are interrogated to throw light upon (a) the comparison between England and other countries, (b) the relationship between age and mathematical attainment in the English sample, (c) differences between boys and girls and (d) the relationship between attainment in Piagetian tasks and more arithmetical tasks.
