Maths twitter, help me out. Where can I get a bank of high quality resources for KS3 students who are struggling to access the curriculum. I'm not a big fan of twinkl for various reasons, but I don't know what alternatives there are...

I'm heading in to my thirteenth year of teaching and I've been wholly inefficient in my planning for twelve years. I've written, designed, rewritten and redesigned lessons for each lesson I've taught over those years.

I should have concluded, of course, that the process has shown, at least for GCSE Maths, that teachers have been able to provide CAGs which have been honest and accurate and that’s a huge testament to everyone’s professionalism. We’ll hear no teacher bashing about this! 7/7

Replying to @BBCBreaking
@BBCBreaking @BBCNews please can you say Centre Assessed Grade rather than teacher assessed grade? The two are different. The grades passed through a lot of hands before they were submitted - it was never one teacher's decision.

BREAKING: Government #Uturn means both A levels and GCSEs will be awarded based on teacher-assessed grades. Students will receive whichever is higher: CAGs or moderated grades. #alevels2020 #GCSE2020

If Gavin Williamson was your NQT mentor, he’d forget to turn up to observe the lesson you spent ages planning, despite knowing about it for 2wks. On your end of term assessment, he’d give detailed feedback on your teaching based on the 5 minute learning walk he did 3 months ago.

Teachers, what are your best teacher life hacks? I’m thinking snipping tool, penny on your stapler, books handed in open on marked page .... that sort of thing? #teamenglish #edutwitter #teachertwitter

What would I like to see in a maths classroom? “Scaffolded wondering” @AJMagicMessage what a lovely phrase! Really good webinar, thank you.

Individual feedback to my class at a 2 metre distance. They put their book under the visualiser, I give them feedback and then they edit their work! The table is then fully cleaned before the next child comes along 🤣 ✍🏻

We know that the government’s actions have made it seem like the rules no longer apply. So don’t follow the guidelines for them. Please do it for the NHS instead - and for your family. And we will get through this together - with or without those in power. Thank you x
