I've made a summary of Ofsted's English subject review which was released at the start of March. It's for both primary and secondary teachers and leaders.

There's a written and visual summary on my website: https://t.co/qIlhzbp3hY

I hope it's useful!

[Alison Borthwick @easternmaths]

If there is only one interview to watch, it is this one. Anne Watson and John Mason discuss their lasting truths about mathematics teaching. I won't revel any spoilers - watch it for yourselves! https://t.co/EsgXleeo1I #thereislightattheendoftherainbow

[Pip - Mathematics @AccomplishEdu]

Do children get to see the area model alongside formal long multiplication?
Is area model 'dropped' too soon due to SATs when so useful for KS3?
Interesting discussions with Pri & Sec teachers in @NEHS_MathsHub workgroup.

@jbecole @artbookreviews There is supposed to be a list at the top - but it's not there!

[Charlotte Hawthorne @mrshawthorne7]

In case it’s useful to anyone (as the HTML version annoys me) I’ve made the Ofsted mathematics subject report into a Word doc and PDF:

And more bedtime reading! (Or airport and flying reading 🤨). Leaving this here for later … @geoffwake1 @helenjwc @DrHelenDrury @RuthTrundley @rachelgmarks @RHarveySwanston @MathsFin @LearningMaths @ATMMathematics @thejmcuk @p_glaister https://t.co/kEfmIzLZfc

📚🧠 Covid-19 & lockdown have had a significant impact on pupils' emotional maturity. Check out our sketchnote to explore the 4 facets of emotional intelligence and discover effective strategies to develop these skills with your students. Let's empower them for success! 💪

[Richard Perring @LearningMaths]

That's it! The constructions and loci deck is published!

#NCETMCheckpoints are hundreds (money on @donaldson_maths knowing the actual number) of tasks that are intended to help identify what KS3 students DON'T know, what they DO know AND HOW they know it

Give every Mathematics Teacher a copy of this book and there'd be no need to keep reteaching Fractions & Decimals at Secondary!

Might get more children wanting to do maths up to 18! @GillianKeegan

It's been almost two years since my last blog - but here goes! My thoughts on assessment. With thanks to @Louisa_J_22 for her thoughts on reporting to parents. https://t.co/tR9L3aJOD2

[Richard Perring @LearningMaths]

A new set of #NCETMCheckpoints has just gone live. 24 tasks around transformations featuring snail jeopardy and one of my favourite puns ever!

[NCETM @NCETM]

Our new #NCETMCheckpoints PowerPoint slides and teacher notes now available for 'Understanding multiplicative relationships: fractions and ratio'. Assess your Y7s and plan what maths to tackle next with them https://t.co/19xG9ETzws

[Secret Teacher @SecretTeach3r]

Really want to change our marking policy to reduce teacher workload. Anyone out there done this successfully and seen a positive impact?

ADHD

If you have (or suspect you have) ADHD what is something that you wish your teachers had understood?

(I'd love your ideas to share with a group of fab SENDCos I'll be working with this week)

[Dr Verena Brähler @VBraeh]

It was a pleasure working with @researchIP on this much-needed scoping study on #earlyhelp. There're a lack of clarity about what early help and support is, how universal it should be, and where any thresholds should be set. https://t.co/Thte3ulDr3
