Thought it might be useful to have a post of which exam boards people use for Maths, to help find each other when we have queries etc about the specification or where to find resources. Add yourself in a comment below if you're happy for people to know what you do- no obligation to do anything else!

Every year I play the Mcfly song ‘it’s all about you’ when I teach integration by substitution, so I loved that they remembered it in this card! I also love the Toucan-Newton substitution!! 🦜🍎 #ALevelMaths

At #mathsconf37 @mathsjem.bsky.social did a ‘fun with factorising’ session and taught us this fun way of factorising. I came home and showed my year 11 son, he did the second one and liked the new (well, very old!) method! Thanks Jo! #MathsToday

In #ALevelMaths #MathsToday (yesterday) I was excited to use @catrionaagg.bsky.social amazing intro to normal distribution ‘fill in the blanks’ worksheet with my year 13s. It reinforced the need to draw the diagram, to understand the sd and mean and what we are calculating with the probabilities! 😊

Snow day for my college ❄️ (not for my two children though who are gutted that their school is open! I’m sure they’ll take concerns to the headteacher, who just happens to be their dad 🤣)
