Listening to #scottmills this morning with #Guvnab. What he said about cutting corners really resonated with me; if you always cut corners, you go around in circles. 🟦🔵

I lead an Oracy group and I love it - the results the participants report back are just phenomenal. #oracyinmaths #mathstalk #edusky
💡 How can talk lead to better maths learning?

The Oracy Commission Report makes a compelling case for embedding oracy across all subjects, including maths. Our feature explores the role of oracy in closing attainment gaps 👇

Sat at my desk thinking about my week and workload. I felt I needed a boost so I went to my positivity jar and this (below) came out. Too right - stop being so negative. Being negative doesn’t get me through my to do list. I can’t really forget the rest but the sentiment is there. Do your. Best.
