Okay so this question is obviously terribly worded, but credit where it’s due for the thinking it’s going to generate.

We do something v similar at @AxiomMaths. Candidates are told what topics we'll be asking about in advance and what kind of examples to prepare. Only difference is we don't give the exact wording as we don't want people pressured to rehearse a *perfect* answer.

Real pleasure to talk to @RealGeoffBarton today about oracy and maths. I'm delighted by how deeply Geoff and the team are thinking about different subjects and the disciplinary nature of oracy.

Women between the ages of 30-39 are the biggest group of teachers leaving each year. @mtptproject and @WeAreNewBritain have teamed up to explore why, and what we can do about it. We want your perspectives, whether you have left teaching or have continued your career. 1/
This is why I take a strong stance on social media, even though the causal evidence isn’t rock solid. This is too big a risk to sit back and take.

Thread on a very cool new study. What happens if you put eye tracking software on students and teach them using different PowerPoint slides? Implications and links to student attention, cognitive load and PowerPoint design 🧵

To the dad who just rocked up to school in full knight armour for World Book Day, I salute you.
Will be an interesting test of how good Labour's postal vote operation was.
Ok here are my go-to papers for making small talk with smart non-econs. (Yes, I am exactly as uncool as maintaining this list would imply.)
what paper (not your own, maybe not even in your own area) can you not stop telling people about?
Baffled by the people saying I’m reaping the consequences of the free market. One of the main problems is that we don’t build enough houses because of over regulation. If anything a freer market would get us out of this mess
I’m 30 and I’m shocked at how much worse things have got in just 7 years. The place my husband and I rented between 2017-2020 is now being let for £650 more p/m than we paid (+ hugely inflated bills). Meanwhile the starting salaries for both our first jobs haven’t changed at all
@racheljanetwolf And a more flexible approach to teacher training that allows staff to move between settings? Or even a better route from primary to childcare, given that's where pressures are?
@adamboxer1 @dmthomas90 @bennewmark Worse. Nobody gets prescribed dyslexia medication
There’s no financial quick fix for public services- we need to ensure maximum impact from existing ££. Place-based public service budgets would re-route funding around priorities of communities, not Whitehall silos. Read new report by @JYDenham & me: newlocal.org.uk/publications/r…
@dmthomas90 @tes Really interesting-matches what we found in our @NuffieldFound report: disadvantage gap increases from yr6-yr9 in terms of whether peers behave in class +friends who work hard. This happens within schools, so not explained by segregation between schools. nuffieldfoundation.org/wp-content/upl…
@tes @dmthomas90 I’m assuming you’ve read this? bera-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/be…
I would welcome this. With two conditions that most UK gov people absolutely hate, and hated when I suggested it about Covid inquiry, thus won't happen. . . Inquiry must be done >100 miles from London. Inquiry must be led by foreigners. Irish, Dutch, French, Belgians. Not Brits.
Think we need a proper inquiry into HS2 from start to finish. It's been such a shambles it risks putting govt off from ever doing major infrastructure projects again.
@dmthomas90 A great thread from the author: x.com/_hannahritchie… @_HannahRitchie
A topic where I see one of the biggest gaps between public opinion & recommendations from scientists is palm oil 🌴🦧 Companies often boycott palm oil to look sustainable to consumers. But a ban is rarely the recommendation from experts. 🧵on why it's a complex topic
Hardest part of parenting young kids is trying to find elegant variations for ‘calm down’
In my start of term assembly I asked students for ideas for our next building project (after new sports pitch/fitness suite/toilet block!). A swimming pool is always favourite response. Best responses so far - a cinema (Y8 girl), a golf course (Y7 boy) & darts room (Y10)! 🎯
At B's school there's a wonderful boy with Downs Syndrome. Once his mum told me about how she met with the HT when she was looking for schools and went in talking about all the needs he has. The HT stopped her and said "you don't need to do this. If you want he can come here"..
