Always amazed at Y11 who still want to cheat on mocks or use chatgpt for homework!
Yes all ok now but thank you!
Thank you! Indeed it is non urgent.
Still needing some people to help test out AQA style papers that I have written. If you are able to give them a try please send me a message or reply here.
Currently in a casio webinar. Looks like they've actually listened. The new calculators have solved so many of my issues with the previous ones!
Looking for people to test out a practice paper I have made for AQA higher. Send me a message or leave a reply. Thanks. 💙

Do the notional component boundaries (by paper) need to sum to the overall boundaries? I make AQA foundation 160 for a 4 based on components but it is 158 overall?

These unit sheets are so versatile. I’ve done them with the Edexcel SoW. Set them as a cover lesson with the guiding video, use them in class as a lesson or set them as homework. Perfect for KS4. www.hannahkettlemaths.co.uk/cover
Sorry all I have managed to break my collarbone (again, same one in Sept!) so won’t be able to use my computer properly again for a couple of months. I do still need help checking but might be a while!
Anyone fancy testing out a paper I have written? (For Edexcel higher).
I made a thing!

Hi everyone! Please share this to any secondary Maths teachers 😊:
I have created a Christmas Maths exam paper in the style of Edexcel for my year 11 class for a bit of fun. Please feel free to use it too:

Are your students using studyapps? There are plenty out there teaching them the wrong content... My thoughts on the one most aggressively marketed right now (MedlyAI)

ITV news piece on influencers, predictions and exams. Still some people don’t think TikTok is an issue.
Best Guess paper and Video Tutorial - November Paper 2 Edexcel Foundation @1stclassmaths.bsky.social @mathsjem.bsky.social @themathsbazaar.bsky.social static1.squarespace.com/static/67560...
I have posted key topics for Edexcel Paper 2 but not been able to do AQA as I haven't seen the papers. I can do this tomorrow still if anyone has a copy but otherwise not a lot I can do I am afraid.
Edexcel Higher Key Topics for Paper 2

Key topics for Edexcel Foundation Paper 2. I don't have the higher paper or any for AQA yet.

By "early" I mean promptly after the exam has been sat, not before it...obviously!!
I am happy to analyse the GCSE papers in the coming week and suggest key topics for paper 2/3. This will depend entirely on if I can get eyes on a paper so no promises. Given the very short period between each paper, it might not happen. If you know you will have access to a script early, DM me.
Another booklet made. 23 simple/compound interest questions that get progressively more challenging/interesting. #mathstoday #UKmathschat

Hi, I write them all myself.
#MathsToday I had to talk to students (again) about why trusting AI to do their homework is not a good idea. 2nd time I have caught it out in a week.
#Maths teachers using online hwk platforms, what do you do about this?
Good starter for discussion. What is wrong with this chart? @martinlewis.moneysavingexpert.com
My daughter is doing her Sparx and she just spotted the Chrome now offers in-built AI homework cheating (see button at the top right - takes you straight to AI tools that answer the question for you). FFS.
