And remember, changes in the threshold do not mean a change in the expected standard. Changes are made to maintain the standard year-on-year and reflective relative difficulty of tests.

For SLT trying to support middle leaders in curriculum design, teaching & evaluation, if you missed my @researchEdhome talk in June, here it is. It culminates in some Qs for helping senior-middle leader conversations reveal (rather than bypass) curriculum: https://t.co/Z80GkYDEWY

Excellent food for thought for any KS1 teachers...and LKS2 for that matter.🙌

[Charlotte Inchbald @c_mackechnie]

If a Y1 class were not taught to ‘count within 100, forwards and backwards, starting with any number’ before school closures, would you go straight into ‘add and subtract within 100’ (as Y2s)?

No? What about if they didn’t finish their phonics programme is Y1 or Y2? 🤔

We need to ‘nourish’ subject leaders by giving them space for professional learning. It keeps the job intellectually stimulating. (Paraphrased from @jillberry102 & @johntomsett) #curriculummasterclass
Agreed! I get so much personal joy 💓from being intellectual about my subject!
