It’s like giving History students a list of key dates - just dumbing down
(Yes, I know they’ve had the extra formal sheets since Covid)

The days of GCSE pupils memorising equations and formulae from memory are now officially over. Schools minister Georgia Gould has written to Ofqual to say that "for the lifetime of the current GCSE specifications in these subjects, students should not be required to memorise formulae and equations for assessment purposes." Dumbing down or common sense?

@BritainElects Well, Labour was right to call it a two-horse race between themselves and Reform… it was just that the Green horse was several furlongs ahead!

Gorton and Denton by-election result:
GRN: 40.7% (+27.5)
REF: 28.7% (+14.7)
LAB: 25.4% (-25.3)
CON: 1.9% (-6.0)

Green GAIN from Labour.

Are Labour genuinely confident, or is this a “nudge” tactic designed to nudge Green voters their way?
We’ll find out soon enough…

Quick update, sorry no more #twitterquiz I am in critical care in Portsmouth and gravely ill. Sorry for the message, thanks for all the fun and friendship over the years. I can’t reply to messages.

@vicgoddard Lack of follow-up questions in many parts of the interview was deeply disappointing - seemed the approach was “get through as many questions as possible” rather than a more flexible approach. But these are teachers first, interviewers second, so I don’t want to be hypercritical.

Can’t and won’t listen to it if that’s the tag to draw me in. I hope he was robustly challenged

Listening to this one on 5 Live while I do my A Level marking. Just waiting for Nuno to throw it away. Kilman? Adama? Or both?

After VAR checks, Casemiro's goal is ruled out for offside. Huge roar from the home fans. #WHUFC

A shortlist that screams “we’ll be in a distant third behind Reform and the Greens”
@Tomorrow'sMPs@tomorrowsmps
🔴 GORTON & DENTON: I hear from one source that the shortlist for the Labour selection is confined to just two names: + Eamonn O'Brien, leader of Bury Council since 2021; + Angeliki Stogia, a Manchester city councillor since 2012, who stood for Chester South & Eddisbury in 2024.

I would be asking my History students to analyse the provenance of this article and consider whether it strengthens or weakens the argument.
The author has not taught in a state school since (at least) 2012
I’ll leave you to decide what that means

I get another “No Caller ID” call. This time I answer. It’s the police. “Everything okay?” “Yes,” I reply, “I called by mistake. I was trying to get my phone working and accidentally set off an emergency SOS. I’m so sorry.” They are reassured. I apologise profusely once again.

Woke up in the middle of the night (hence the time of this post) and tried checking my phone for the time. But couldn’t get the screen to come on! Well, it was on 2% battery when I plugged it in to charge, maybe it just hasn’t charged properly. I try another cable - no luck.
