Wow, this is super useful! Thank you @mrsspalding.bsky.social

NEW POST: Five things to look out for on GCSE results day GCSE results are out on Thursday. We'll be posting analysis on the day, but in the meantime here are some things we'll be looking out for on the day. ffteducationdatalab.org.uk/2024/08/five...

Giving this a one week trial. Very much up for getting off the Musk platform! Give me a follow and a repost!

Hello fellow maths teachers. 👋🏼 Lovely to see you all mathschatting away. Helps take my mind off results this week! 👍 I’m not a ‘big hitter’ over here 😬 but whenever I blog I’ll share my posts on X, FB, IG, Threads & BlueSky - same username on all platforms. Here, the hashtag I’ll use is #UKMathsChat
