Before you say anything … I have not broken my blogging break – I’m not really here! I had a blogging binge before I left …. Anyway, I have written about frequency trees more than I care to admit but thought I’d share a homework (here -> Frequency Trees – LEARN Homework ) I’ve made for them … Read more
Every holiday it takes me a few days to actually realise that I’m on a break and this one has been no different. I suspect it comes from (a) having been self-employed (it was a town-centre pub!) was always “on duty” and then (b) when in the corporate world I never used my full holiday entitlement … Read more
Lots has been written about the changes and with all the “hullaballoo” over the SAMs it seems apt to be able to document a definitive list (from my perspective) of the changes to content over the next 4 blog posts (this is 1 of 4) – the intention is that where there are significant changes … Read more

It’s the eve before the 30th June 2015 … let’s call it forevermore “SAMs Eve”. If I’m honest I’m worrying that I’m going to get visits from (ok so it’s a poor frame of reference but you gotta give me points for trying!!): The ghost of “GCSE’s past” who’ll take me to scenes from … Read more
Following my call to Nick Gibbs office on Monday (Post -> HOTLINE TO NICK GIBBS OFFICE ) I chased for an update on the “Good” pass having sent a link to my blog post where I mentioned the students caught up in the grade-shift upwards. It’s great to see that Mark Dawe from OCR is “on song” … Read more
I know, I know! I promised to post a blog on Monday but it’s all a bit mental at the minute – I have about 300 emails in my “justmaths” inbox (so bear with me as I work through them … I am trying but at this rate it may be the Summer holidays!). Yesterday … Read more
