What sports would you use to get kids excited about maths? Today at our Year 7/8 summer Maths Camp, I'm using the game of darts!

We're exploring arithmetic of the board and stats behind players like World Champion Luke Littler to show students the practical power of numbers.

Great to be back at Christ's Hospital School for another day of learning & fun!

What’s more important? Improving teaching quality or improving culture? Can you do both well?

Come along and join the debate with these teacher development titans (and me).

Really interesting panel about building a CPD culture with @informed_edu, @mcunners and Paul Ainsworth at @SAA_Show. Lots of suggestions about bringing staff on a journey of collaboration, always rooted in the why. #ProfessionalDevelopment
