I am happy to analyse the GCSE papers in the coming week and suggest key topics for paper 2/3. This will depend entirely on if I can get eyes on a paper so no promises. Given the very short period between each paper, it might not happen. If you know you will have access to a script early, DM me.

#MathsToday I had to talk to students (again) about why trusting AI to do their homework is not a good idea. 2nd time I have caught it out in a week.
#Maths teachers using online hwk platforms, what do you do about this?

Barely a day into the new academic year and the "predicted paper" marketing is already in full swing. Advise your students accordingly!

Did you know I've been working on A-level content? I've managed to cover all of year 1 statistics now including in depth videos (a little over 6 hours worth), exam questions and solutions on each topic (117 full exam questions in total). All free, of course.

Don't teach Pythagoras because you might not use it as an adult but teach Henry VIII because you personally enjoy teaching it. Do you agree? www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAKT... #MathsToday #UKMathsChat

Thank you to everyone that has helped me get content out! Still GCSEFM to go but the main bits are done! I honestly could not get it done without the help. I also appreciate the support with my YT issue, which I am glad to say, was resolved today! Sadly I did not win the Euromillions. GL tomorrow.
