#ALevelMaths please get involved in helping to produce some A-Level transition matrices for AQA A-Level maths.
Thanks to those who have sent data already. To hopefully make it easier to submit your prior attainment and @aqaeducation.bsky.social Maths A-Level Grade please use the file linked here: www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/pdqqh... DM me for instructions on when to send it. Hoping to share beginning of November.

Inspired by the great previous work of @kerrydunton.bsky.social and because @themathsbazaar.bsky.social is only looking at progression to Edexcel A-Level maths I’d like to produce some transition matrices from GCSE to @aqaeducation.bsky.social Maths. I’m hoping to collect enough data to be useful

Good fun delivering today - even though it wasn’t as I had planned! Thanks @blatherwicksam.bsky.social for lending a laptop when mine wouldn’t display on the board.

Thanks to @jowoodmaths.bsky.social I’ve corrected a misread of my own notes when I typed up my Paper 3. Question 10 should read as shown below. Corrected paper here: drbennisonmaths.com/Practice_Pap... #ALevelMaths

Is anyone able to send me a copy of the level 2 further maths paper? I’ve been asked to do a warmup grid for it but I haven’t got any students sitting the paper so haven’t got a copy in front of me to inform my choice of questions…

Not sure why I haven’t thought to do this before. Looking forward to next year I’ll have one then too.
I’ve added an errata document in case anyone has downloaded an old version of files. Thanks to my usual @nicnaks79.bsky.social @damians78s.bsky.social @jowoodmaths.bsky.social @jbrough13.bsky.social for corrections and contacting me with many issues. It is much appreciated. #ALevelMaths

Decided to have a bit of a break over half term but back on it now… admittedly whilst at Summer in Nashville Nottingham - who likes the hat?

There is a AQA A-Level Further Maths practice for Paper 2 up on my site in the usual place (blog.drbennisonmaths.com) A-Level Paper 1 tomorrow morning and another Further Maths Paper 2 with a connected tank question especially for @ecrmaths.bsky.social tomorrow evening! #ALevelMaths
