Such a wide range of schools and expertise here today at the launch of Mental Maths Fluency intervention - primary schools, secondary schools and Educational Support Centres! Lack of basic facts affects pupils at ALL stages of their education! #hertsmaths

Feel privileged to be part of the HfLeducation Mental Maths Fluency intervention intervention project launch #hertsmaths

Saw some very enthusiastic learners at Holwell last week, demonstrating how second-nature it is for them to use the manipulatives. Every table has a box and pupils reach for whatever resource they think might be helpful. Thank you @HolwellHerts for letting me share! @Hertsmaths

If you’re planning on buying any bedsheets, go to wilko - they come in a soft cotton bag which is perfect as a feely bag for school! 👍🏼

Cuddles with the cat is the best stress-buster. Might start bringing him into school!

Met a v. exciting young writer today & her brilliant teacher. Wound up having to interview. She sounded like a Radio 4 veteran with charm.

@Hertsmaths Agreed. The crucial bit of planning is what impact it has on pupils learning.

Might be time to embarrass Rachel and Charlie again. Are your children nimble with number? vimeo.com/180281520
