🎁 FREE GIFT: FULL ROSENSHINE CPD PACK!
To celebrate 50 consecutive weeks of ⚗️DistillED, I’ve put together something quite cool…
Over the past year, Rosenshine’s Principles of Instruction has been one of the most requested topics from teachers and school leaders. So I’ve put together a complete, ready-to-run CPD pack to help schools explore and implement all 10 principles.
The download includes:
→ 10 CPD PowerPoints (ready for 30–45 min sessions)
→ 10 strategy checklists (practical classroom actions)
→ 10 planning templates (put principles into action )
→ Covers all 10 of Rosenshine’s Principles of Instruction
Everything you need to run ten focused CPD sessions — one for each principle.
👉 REPOST and comment ROSENSHINE and I’ll DM you the link. Cheers!
⏰ Available until Sunday 22 March!
Great blog. This resonates:
Here again is Goodhart’s warning. Once the measure (grades) became the goal, it obscured the very thing it was meant to reveal. The number may look reassuring, but it may hide a hollow core. The measure, repurposed as a target, has lost its value.

I have recently written a new curriculum for 5-18 mathematics.
I think the approach to curriculum design is unlike anything that currently exists. I also think it is precisely what we need.
I will publish a full discourse shortly. But first, I would like to stress test my thinking.
At 7pm on Thursday, I will present my ideas in a live webinar.
I would like to invite all those interested in mathematics curriculum design to join me, hear me out, and share your thoughts.
If you would like to attend, please send me a DM with your email and I will add you to the invitation list, with a link to the webinar.
Being able to articulate the thinking behind the curriculum and receive feedback and criticism from expert mathematics educators and mathematicians will be enormously helpful.
Hope to see you there.

I'm not convinced that being unable to see the immediate applications is what's turning some students off math. It's more likely that they're struggling b/c of missing foundational skills & nobody likes having to do something that makes them feel stupid. Fix the foundation.

Assessment is Scotland is in need of radical reform. The Hayward report gets it spectacularly wrong.

Appreciate this perspective regarding retaking of assessments @tguskey: tguskey.com/why-should-we-al…
For anyone interested in using the CIMT MEP materials, I have mapped the CfE Level 3 benchmarks. You can play around with the filters at the top to get the E's & O's sequenced or, only see the numeracy ones.

@rjs2212 @chrismcgrane84 @bridgegapmath @garyl82 @gcsepod Thanks if you’ve already RT’ed, but if not then please spread the word about my big new free project. Very keen that teachers and maths fans share, so we can increase the number/diversity of excellent mathematicians.
BIG NEWS - Teachers & parents.
I’m hosting FREE online maths circles. Four circles EVERY week
(ages 9-11, 11-13, 13-16, 16-18).
Fully interactive. Everyone welcome, anywhere in the world. More info at parallel.org.uk/
Pls RT
Let's build the world's biggest maths circles.
Here is a link you might find helpful to share with pupils:
tinyurl.com/SQAmaths
It offers past paper practice, grouped by topic, that reflects the recent SQA announcement of what will not be assessed - I think!
Thanks to @dynamicmaths for making this really easy to do!
