Faculty Head of Science at Wick High School in the Far North of Scotland.

[John MacBeath @MrMacBeath]

Well done to all of my students. You should be proud of the efforts and hard work that you have put in throughout challenging times.

Also, in a small bit of personal news, I'm looking forward to starting as Faculty Head of Science in Wick from the beginning of the new term.

@tlcoachcarolyn No problem.

@mathsmrgordon @tlcoachcarolyn No problem - thanks for your help.

A reminder of these, in case they prove handy in the run-up to assessments. N5 and Higher Maths Past Paper Questions - must admit, I'd forgotten they existed myself!

Very proud of these mathematicians - their determination and collaborative approach to problem-solving during weekly tutorials should be an inspiration to all.

@MissMozDog @Xris32 I may print this tweet and frame it on my wall.

If anyone is interested in setting up a similar file for their own subject, please get in touch. Was lucky enough to have a lot of help in setting up those files, more than happy to help again.

I've changed the platform after last year's access issues, hopefully will work more consistently. Was great to hear of the files being used all over the country.

[John MacBeath @MrMacBeath]

@STEMScot @Korenth69 Ehhhhh.. John is away from Twitter at the moment and will return when he has thought of an appropriate response.

[John MacBeath @MrMacBeath]

Well done to my students, I am delighted with your results and they are testament to the dedication shown throughout the year.

If you're disappointed, don't panic, the best route is not always the easiest. Thanks to @Korenth69 and @STEMScot for helping me get here.

John is a teacher with @WickHigh. Originally, he studied Maths & Physics at university with no intention of becoming a teacher but when his post-graduation job fell through he found himself gravitating towards teaching and now loves his career https://t.co/D1UJE17b1N #NoWrongPath

Feeling inspired after a weekend of reading @olicav 's book, "Dual Coding". Looking forward to trying to integrate these approaches into my practise going forward. Spent Sunday redrafting a resource from last year.

[John MacBeath @MrMacBeath]

@MrStrachanMaths Thanks very much Sean.

I have volunteered to assist in the development of a new Positive Relationships policy. Are there any recommendations of articles or policies elsewhere that I should read? All recommendations gratefully received.

[John MacBeath @MrMacBeath]

@MissMozDog Thanks very much Caitlin.

[John MacBeath @MrMacBeath]

Thoroughly enjoyable day at the first @scottishmaths Northern Conference. Thanks to @maths180 @ChrisMcGrane84 for thought-provoking, informative sessions. #smcnorth

[John MacBeath @MrMacBeath]

@ForAcadMaths @mrburnsmaths Glad that's it sorted. No problem at all.

[John MacBeath @MrMacBeath]

Here are two Maths Past Paper resources - one for Nat5 and one for Higher. Topic-Specific Questions, linked to individually, followed by the marking scheme for that question. Feel free to share:

Nat 5 - https://t.co/53H8brd1V1
Higher - https://t.co/X5LXXkcGx1

[John MacBeath @MrMacBeath]

@ForAcadMaths @mrburnsmaths If either of you get the chance, I would appreciate if you try to access the file through Glow again. I think I've changed the settings correctly, but I'm not 100% sure.

[John MacBeath @MrMacBeath]

@ForAcadMaths @mrburnsmaths Thanks very much both for your kind words. I'll look into fixing the access. Thanks again.

[John MacBeath @MrMacBeath]

@mrallanmaths Chris was incredibly helpful in the making of them. No problem at all, feel free.
