Abstract For a long time, mathematical proof has been at the core of an active debate in the community of mathematics educators: often blamed as responsible for pupils’ difficulties, but also recognised as a crucial aspect of mathematics activity. Starting with a brief discussion on the status of proof in the mathematics culture we will attempt to provide a quick overview of proof in the reality of schools. A few snapshots from recent research studies will be presented together with possible directions for the future
