Our reflections on the place of mathematics teaching in the curricular framework are positioned on these twin concerns: what mathematics education can do to engage the mind of every student, and how it can strengthen the student's resources. We describe our vision of mathematics in school, attempt to delineate the core areas of concern, and offer recommendations that address the concerns, based on these twin perspectives.It is very much true that most of the skills taught in the class are useful in everyday life. The time students spend in school in terms of problem-solving and analytical skills, helps them to encounter a wide variety of problems in life.
