A qualification where students can get the top 9-9 double grade with 65% over all papers and a strong pass with 28% is tacit acknowledgement that there is too much on these papers and most children will not know most of it. Even the brightest. Cut content. ✂️

The trouble with Restorative Practices in schools is that there is too much focus on using them to respond to incidents and not enough on building community to prevent incidents. You can't restore what you didn't build.

Strong words from the IoP about AQA A level physics.
I agree with a lot of what they say - it’s not motivating for students to sit extremely difficult papers. I’ve had lots of good physicists drop physics due to this.
I hope AQA change but we won’t be giving them another chance

Formula triangles suck. There are many reasons not to use them. Stop using them.
Mr Hart@hartmaths
Picked up a new Y11 class this year and it’s taking a lot of work trying to get them off using formula triangles…

Quite pleased with how this looks. Trying to increase exposure to science texts for sixth formers with suggestions of further reading.
