Maths. Curriculum, leadership interests.
My cousin emigrated from his birthplace in Jamaica, to Florida. Last time he came to see us in the UK was in November 2024. He said even then he wouldn’t leave the country while Trump was in power, because there was a big possibility he wouldn’t be allowed back in. It’s awful.

Imagine if a school avoidant child is beginning to come back in on a reduced timetable. Specifying a chosen partner in each class is often achievable and makes a huge difference.

I’m surprised a trusted friend or three isn’t specified in a profile document. Would also help school avoidance. In such a public place as a classroom, who’s by your side (physically and figuratively) is so important!

I reckon it simmers awkwardly with hilariously dark consequences all the way to 10pm NYE when they all go home to their families after realising they are far more important than bi-annual old friends who’ve grown apart.

Can you give me a few examples? I agree with the second part of your post but need help with the first!

No that’s Monopoly mate.

We three ate dinner together (eldest now at Uni) and had such a giggle. I’ve reached the age now where I notice, and am thankful, which is a beautiful thing.

Just look at Q2. My fastest year 9s knew enough not only to generalise but then go on and try to prove it would always equal 1/3. Didn’t quite get there but that’s for another day.

In at number 2 (cos nothing beats whiteboards) is my graphics tablet and pencil. Live annotations without the visualiser optical noise.

But they still don’t get any scores. Just colours.
December 2, 2025 at 5:02 PM
Then after we have reviewed the questions they get their own QLA. As we are Maths, each question has a hyperlink to a MyMaths explanation that they follow up for homework.
December 2, 2025 at 5:02 PM
I don’t put any marks on the papers at all. I collect the scores separately and have a feedback QLA ready for AFTER we have reviewed all the questions.
The only scores I show them is MY feedback - the summary of how the class performed on each question.

Haha no, just scrolling through the hashtag as each song ends!

Using this as a playlist while making my first ever Christmas cakes. (Plural; one has to be allergen-free)
It’s brilliant, thanks everyone!

There is a reason this is true.
