Interesting discussion today between colleagues about the answer to the square of 81 being positive AND negative and not accepting pupils writing just positive 9.
I would accept just +9 as I am sure I read about the principle of a square number is only positive?

[Mr Stead @mrsteadmaths]

@Mathematical_A Yeah this is how I justified it due due to the laws of polynomials. In the benchmarks from Ed Scot they have it has positive and negative and just a bug bare of mine haha

Today is #WorldSuicidePreventionDay.

We can all help to prevent suicide by starting the conversation and creating a culture of openness, understanding and support.

Remember, it is not always obvious when somebody needs help.

NEW: Gilruth gives ‘clear support’ for whole-school phone bans https://t.co/8pwqxz2Fk1 @TesScotland @tes

[Mr Stead @mrsteadmaths]

@Emma_Seith If the Scottish government delivered on their promise that every pupil would get a digital device for learning they could have put in place a blanket ban on mobile phones. The inequity on digital devices available between councils is astounding. Mobiles lead to behaviour issues.
