Ep 101: Why Do So Many People Hate Teachers?
Teach Sleep Repeat · Episode
New term - New episode!
Why do so many people hate teachers?
This was inspired by a few msgs we received & some quite trollish comments on our social media pages recently.
(We say in the ep, so many people don't but the minority are so loud)

Ep 99: Have Ofsted Completely Lost Their Minds?
Teach Sleep Repeat · Episode
New episode out now!
I think the recent Ofsted changes are even more frustrating because they pretended for so long they were actually listening to us.
Loads extra packed into this one (TA exploitation, tough job of a good leader, Hayden's lookalike..) #edusky

Such lovely feedback on this one! 💙
It was so nice to talk about our passion, maths, and talk about what good maths teaching looks like.
Properly defining fluency, reasoning and problem solving was my favourite part... Some myths dispelled!

Yeah honestly it's a bit insane 😂 I've worked in primary schools that want all planning and some that don't care. It adds SO much workload!

Had 3 separate people message to say this was their favourite episode yet!
I don't normally go on about how you "must" listen to our podcast (it cringes me out a bit) but ....
This one will help a *lot* of people.
Well worth a listen or a share with someone you think it might help

Nice! I like it in the context of something explorative and with other numbers systems, but I just don't care if they know what L is at 8 years old.
I remember doing a lesson on the history of numbers and it was one of my favourites

I just can't get past teaching it as something there tested on at 8 years old when most of them can't even double a two digit number properly 😂
