There was lots of food for thought in this session from @mrmattock.bsky.social at #MathsConf41 : probability as a measure; introducing theoretical and experimental probability alongside each other; connecting different representations

Just had a delightful time talking about some Checkpoints (including this one), and a few tangential thoughts, with an enthusiastic group of Maths teachers here at #MathsConf41. Having discussed Checkpoints twice now, I should probably find something different to talk about for next time.

Anyone around north London can teach A level maths for a few days at an outstanding sixth form college in Harrow on the Hill? Their results were fab, and they are massively over subscribed and maths numbers are bouncing ... I taught there three years myself, brilliant place to teach. #ALevelMaths

This is fab advice, particularly one paper at a time. Every year I see so much evidence that this is not done by so many.

Looking to benefit from experience of #mathstoday crew. Just started in a secondary after working in Pri and middle. V high PP. Teaching groups include tiny bottom sets. Ss struggle with basic skills, attendance & focus. Rewarding & challenging work but interested to know what's worked for others?
