Female subordination. Sexist 'modesty' codes. Violence against women.

Day 1 of my new role at @meimaths.bsky.social. Have just been made a ‘enjoy your first day’ breakfast by #boy2. Nothing better to kick off a new job than coffee, lemon drizzle cake, chocolate and a brioche. To be eaten with a spoon.

Outside of my day job I was very pleased to be asked to be involved in evaluating the hashtag#PlanetPossibility consortium of grassroots charities, universities, and education partners across the UK. Over three years this consortium reached nearly 95,000 people.

Over the last couple of months I have been watching
- Expertly designed and led PD
- With out-of-field maths teachers 'growing' their identity as mathematician,
- Become even better at teaching students who need maths teachers the most.
So important that these programmes externally evaluated. (1/n)

In #MathsToday I taught a y7 class that I don't normally teach, and filmed them doing some Fluency tasks using double number lines from @ncetm.bsky.social Secondary. They were a pleasure and showed some great insights.
