Why can pupils sometimes look at a question, which we know they can answer, and just seem to freeze? Ahead of Monday's 3.45pm Maths webinar, we're looking at @amarbeersinghg.bsky.social's 2025 blog exploring the q above and delving further 🔽 researchschool.org.uk/news/why-som...

Worth remembering when using teacher assessment to monitor standards within and between schools, that a human opinion is not a standard unit of measurement.

First up at #ReDBmouth was a very thought provoking look at assessment from @s-donarski.bsky.social - big takeaway being that "assessment" can't be separated from curriculum design and delivery.

That student who scored 65% versus one who scored 60%? @singhamarbeerg.bsky.social and Jen Curran reminded me they're likely within each other's margin of error. Our comfort with numbers creates a dangerous illusion of certainty in education. What matters isn't the score itself but what follows.
