You're starting from scratch with 5 yr SOW, rolling out one year at a time, starting with yr 7. How do you approach this to maximise chances for success? @jemmaths.bsky.social @mathsjem.bsky.social @justmaths.bsky.social @arithmaticks.bsky.social @studymaths.bsky.social @krisboulton.bsky.social

What would you remove from the current Maths GCSE?

Anything you’d add?

Key vocab! How do you deal with? We have a 'unit vocabulary' sheet that students glue into books and fill in as we go- feels clunky. As a school, we 'drill' vocab every lesson (choral response). This hasn't got 100% buy in yet @justmaths.bsky.social @resourceaholic.bsky.social @jemmaths.bsky.social

Inspired from the "Moving em up" workshop where
@justmaths.bsky.social shared on GCSE, I'll be attempting to do this for A Level. Lots of discussion promised!

Haha! It worked!

I scoped out the angle this morning and figured I’d be very lucky to pull it off, but it was surely worth a try, eh?

Anyone work in a school that's formally implemented scheduled skip-level meetings e.g. where teachers meet their HoD's line manager or middle leaders meet the head? I mean beyond a general invitation or statement that doors are open.
