Just a newbie trying to understand practice accross school/opinions: Alevel maths teaching for one year group (let's say Y12): 1) Do you split Half Pure/Stats & Half Pure/Mech between 2 teachers 2) Do you split Pure & Stats/Mech between 2 teachers 3) Other. Which? #ALevelMaths #MathsToday

Looking through some alternative sources of questions that can be used for either Y12 and/or Y13, these source of questions came as a hidden gem. Below is from June 2024 Edexcel IGCSE Further Pure Definitely worth looking at - I've used a few for my Y12s! #ALevelMaths @andrewmaths1.bsky.social
Started working on my first @desmos.com notebook this morning. I think this is going to be a really powerful tool - text with nice maths formatting and interactive graphs/diagrams. www.desmos.com/notebook/qdn... (plenty still to add!) #MathsToday

Really pleased to have an article included in the latest issue of 'Mathematics in Schools' by @amiemathematics.bsky.social m-a.org.uk/mathematics-...
Imagine if numeracy were taught in history lessons. So many great stories about how and why the Tudors switched from Roman to Indo Arabic numerals. Here's the GCSE 'exam' that we circulated at the recent @histassoc.bsky.social conference: robeastaway.com/graphics/GCS... #NationalNumeracyDay
Not long now! Further Maths Core Pure Part 2 is incoming! #ALevelFurtherMaths #sneakpeak #ALevelMaths
