Abstract
The majority of students leave school with a dislike for mathematics. Why is this the case? Is it perhaps the nature of the subject, poor teaching, maybe conditioning from home or possibly a change in the way children learn? These issues are examined in the light of current research and experience. In particular the role of the teacher is examined as a means of improving affective outcomes in mathematics.
