Very interesting using good old-fashioned tables of values to teach Trigonometry this morning. It seems to be a good way to embed understanding of the inverse process for finding the angle from the ratio.
๐๏ธ Last week our D of E students took part in a silver practice expedition.
Two days of walking and camping overnight, erecting their tents and cooking their own food. Students conquered Pen Y Fan, the highest peak in the Bannau Brycheiniog!

Eighty of our Year 7 and 8 students took part in the @UKMathsTrust's Junior Mathematical Challenge today. It "encourages mathematical reasoning, precision of thought and fluency to make students think."

@Strickomaster If I may also suggest:
1. Raise pastoral support standards by increasing time for rapport-building interactions between all staff and students.
2. Level the playing field for schools in deprived areas to access more teachers.
3. Maths and English should not count double...
If any of the unsuccessful Maths Teacher candidates who interviewed at the local Grammar school would like to apply for a Maths teaching role with us instead, keep an eye on the link https://t.co/O7OHmyFCQx. We offer equally deserving and teachable children.
