The joy of finding a book that you quickly realise you have to ration to one chapter a night because it is so beautifully written. I am learning and enjoying this book so much in case you can’t tell. 😂

Calling all Maths teachers!

What are some of your all-time great tasks for secondary Maths?

Ones that could have their place in any curriculum, one that should be studied in PGCE courses, ones that started whole new genres of tasks...
... or just ones you really like.

(see some of mine below)

The poem "Singh song!" is part of the GCSE English lit syllabus, and in this blog I offer some reasons as to why I think it should be replaced, or at the very least thoroughly critiqued.

I'm particularly keen to get thoughts from English lit teachers, so please get in touch and share!
