All set up and ready for day 1 of the Cambridge Maths hub for the subject knowledge for TAs. Looking forward to meeting our 24 keen TAs to do some maths! @ncetm.bsky.social

In #mathstoday year 8 improved their fluency recognising primes (and tested their patience) with maths bots find the prime game mathsbot.com/puzzles/find...

In #mathstoday (yesterday) we put out a job advert for January start. I know I’m biased but it really is a great place to work that gives you lots of freedom to develop into the teacher you want to be. Please share with those you know in the Cambridge area… www.tes.com/jobs/vacancy...

Has anyone got any experience offering functional skills in year 10 or Jan of yr 11 as a stepping stone to GCSE? Something I’m thinking about considering. Currently do L1 number and measure award in yr 11 and assessing if this is still the right choice #UKMathsChat

Overheard in #mathstoday (without hint of sarcasm) “I genuinely think the grid method [for factorising quadratics] will save my life one day”

In #mathstoday year 10 got to play with desmos and some dynamic graphing to explore quadratics while year 9 got to play with some double sided counters and begin their journey with negative numbers. It was a fun teaching day!

This (sadly) is not surprising. Equally sadly is that I’m sure a lot isnt reported and just accepted. If I could protect my team from one thing it would be this..

I didn’t teach any #mathstoday but did get to talk to some great maths teachers at my first PD lead session

In #mathstoday I think I’ve finally started to convince my year 10 group that there is just as much worth in understanding the ‘why’ behind the maths as just ‘doing’

This is fun! Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #6,209,991!

One of the best bits of my job is working with the maths hub!

Getting ready to set some new (school) year resolutions. This is something I do every year - does anyone else?? First on this years list, find a better organisation system than “can you send that to me in an email?” when staff speak to me! #ukmathschat

The 2024 AMSP New to A level Maths Summer School has now finished. I'm shattered but it has been such a privilege to work with an amazing group of teachers this week. Your students are lucky to be taught by such dedicated professionals. You're all awesome! #ALevelMaths

1 more day of the new to teaching #ALevelMaths summer school to go. 3 days in and I’m not ‘team stats’ yet but I am firmly ‘team make connections between *everything*’
