Got to talk to all of my maths colleagues across Astrea Academies tonight about ratio tables across the curriculum 😍😍😍
Total privilege and so excited to see how it impacts teaching and learning for our scholars 🤩

What’s everyone’s experience of students managing their maths exercise books? Loose worksheets are a problem. We’ve tried gluing in but then it can get costly. We’re currently trialing hole punching books and using treasury tags but students struggle with the dexterity needed & organisation. Ideas?

This is shaping up to be such a good event! 🤩
If you’re interested in attending, get yourself a ticket booked now! 🎟️

We’re also still on the lookout for speakers in Maths, Science and RS - so if you teach in those subjects and have something to share, sign up here ✍️

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

There are 3 ways we can improve provision at Key Stage 3.

First, stop treating KS3 as a warm-up for 'serious' work at KS4.

When we do that, we lower the intellectual bar, often without realising it.

A friend of mine has just launched this website that I think is pretty great for generating quick starters for A-Level maths and he has started adding some questions for Further Maths too.

A friend of a friend is doing a PhD, focussing on what teachers know and understand about gender diversity in the context of secondary & college education. Her research aims to determine what training (if any) teachers feel they need to be able to work with gender diverse students. (1/2)

I don't really post anymore, but I would like to carry on writing books at some point in the future.

Hate to be annoying, but any chance you could retweet so old twitter followers can find me if they want to? Going to delete my twitter, or at least abandon it on lock and let it die a slow death.
