@RufusWilliam Well that's still a lot

[Maths Webb @MathsWebb]

@RogersHistory Do you reckon Alphas cheif headhunter read this?

[Maths Webb @MathsWebb]

I'm very strict about showing working out in an exact way, perhaps I'm way too exacting on how it should be set out.

At home, I fail terribly at this.

At school, I get most to do it, reluctant kids cotton on fairly quickly.

RTs appreciated
Maths teachers:
My Y7 son works a lot out in his head,hates writing working out (even with me on hwk)
Interested in "Trad" & "Prog" opinions:
Votes & comments greatly appreciated...
Are you mostly prog or trad?
Will I make him show full on detailed working or not?

@RufusWilliam Scrutinising the molecular structure of a Pret coffee

[Maths Webb @MathsWebb]

@RufusWilliam Ah, nothing so salubrious in my part of Stoke.

But I do grind my locally roasted, single origin, roasted within tha last 2 weeks arty farty coffee in our staff kitchen.

Let's see if we can get a Pret built on my commute

I'm not angry at those joining Alpha.

It does make my head spin a bit.

Let's see what happens.

It'll be interesting.

Let's see...

@thegingerwig My first & last derby at Maine Road
My GF at the time didn't want me to go and knew it had sold out
This prompted a row in which ended the (1.5 Ur) relationship,her parting shot,"It's impossible for you to go"
35h later, a Blue called Neil Hatfield sold me 2x North Stand tckts.

@_Paula_Cri @CoachDanGo @jeslllll Thank you, I'll check that out

[Maths Webb @MathsWebb]

@_Paula_Cri @CoachDanGo @jeslllll I agree, but it's expensive.
Do you know a reliable brand?

[Maths Webb @MathsWebb]

@CoachDanGo Chia (soaked in hot water then blended in lime juice - mix it with Psyllium Husk drink)

Kalonji seeds.

@RufusWilliam All wearing ties 👏

[Maths Webb @MathsWebb]

@greeborunner Wow - that's a great place at that distance (struggled to keep that pace on my 10 miler today).
A brilliant achievement 👏🤜

@ChrisHillidge @SamStrickers181 Having read this https://t.co/TGuOJJSduP it sounds like she wants to curb teaching KS4 content in KS3 and kids doing options in y8.
Sounds nice, but Gove did this already.

Homework / School MIS
What's the most efficient way to:
-Share hwk with pupils & parents
-Make it quick and easy for teachers to publish homework (& deadlines) and log completion?

Also, is logging completion on an MIS really worth the opportunity cost? (Often it is duplication)

[Maths Webb @MathsWebb]

@thevoteuk And removing the disruptor is not a popular mood.

[Maths Webb @MathsWebb]

@thevoteuk So the ideal solution is educate the disruptor elsewhere.

Great if 1) the disruptor will engage and 2) the school can afford this bespoke, 1 to 1 (or small group) tuition.

1 is unlikely, 2 is unaffordable.

There isn't a perfect solution. The trade off is removed disruptor.
