@hkettlemaths would personally like to thank you for your Thursday sessions live on TikTok. I have a group of your typical 'PP males' in Stoke and this has proved really engaging to them! Thank you!!

I'm really pleased to be finally able to announce that in September I will be taking up a new post as a maths teacher at Dulwich College, in Shanghai. Always been an ambition to teach abroad... just scary my flight departs in 5 weeks!! #teaching #Maths #emigrate

A fantastic 2 days at #MEIConf23. Taking away some news ideas to try, especially around curriculum, collaboration and A-Level. Great seeing so many familiar faces too! @MEIMaths @Advanced_Maths @StokeMEP @NCETM @KeeleUniversity @mathsjem @mrshawthorne7

A privilege having @mrbartonmaths come to school this week to work with our maths department. Very insightful, helpful and looking forward to his next visit already! Huge thanks to you Craig and @StokeMEP

Such a thought- provoking session from @mrbartonmaths on means of participation. @ma_stoke. Thanks for attending

[Mr Purle @mrpurlemaths]

A former pupil got in touch today telling me they're now a Data Science Undergraduate Apprentice with a high-end car manufacturer, using maths all the time. One of those moments to cherish!

[Mr Purle @mrpurlemaths]

#MathsConf30 looking forward to seeing Mr Barton again!

[Mr Purle @mrpurlemaths]

Wishing all Y11 across the country good luck. Particular mention to my group - so proud of you all. Can't help but feel I've let a few down having just missed out on grades with 'those' boundaries... but today is to celebrate 🍾

[Mr Purle @mrpurlemaths]

Been asked to look at writing Curriculum Intent Document for GCSE Statistics - seems to be very few examples/guides out there for this. No idea where to start! Any help greatly appreciated!

@nkl_17 @mathsjem @Corbettmaths @mrbartonmaths @StokeMEP @edsouthall Thank you, if I know I have ability groups this sounds like a good one to do!

[Mr Purle @mrpurlemaths]

Going into work for the first time since Lockdown next week to teach 3 classes of 8 year 10's (pupils yet to be confirmed). Any suggestions for what to do? New topic, base it on Online learning, other? TIA! @mathsjem @Corbettmaths @mrbartonmaths @StokeMEP @edsouthall

[Mr Purle @mrpurlemaths]

@c_ollerenshaw @mathsjem @Corbettmaths @mrbartonmaths @StokeMEP @edsouthall Thankyou!

[Mr Purle @mrpurlemaths]

@andy_brfc @edsouthall @mathsjem @Corbettmaths @mrbartonmaths @StokeMEP Hoping so, but just preparing for all possibilities! Thanks for the idea!

[Mr Purle @mrpurlemaths]

@weebiloobil Thanks for this!

[Mr Purle @mrpurlemaths]

@frisbeemaths @mathsjem @Corbettmaths @mrbartonmaths @StokeMEP @edsouthall I certainly won't refuse!!

[Mr Purle @mrpurlemaths]

@frisbeemaths @mathsjem @Corbettmaths @mrbartonmaths @StokeMEP @edsouthall That sounds like something I might look into tomorrow, especially with the potential for top/bottom pupils in the same session. Thanks!

[Mr Purle @mrpurlemaths]

@DeeVijayan @mathsjem @Corbettmaths @mrbartonmaths @StokeMEP @edsouthall That sounds like a structured plan. I'm unsure if any of my groups will be split into abilities yet so I'm also conscious of choosing something that is easy to differentiate for potentially top to bottom set pupils, and the have/haven't done any online workers!
