Add to ORKGIn this paper, I elaborate on a presentation I made to a Westminster Education Forum Seminar Reviewing the Maths Curriculum - part of the Westminster Education Forum National Curriculum Seminar Series. I draw on my experiences of posing one problem to children and young people in secondary schools and to well trained mathematicians in pre-service mathematics teacher education to illustrate how and argue that an overprescribed classroom practice cannot meet the stated aims of the UK National Curriculum (2007). Paulo Friere provides the inspiration for me to envisage an alternative practice
