I've just updated my topic analysis tool. Not only does it highlight key topics that have appeared since 2022, it also shows the grade distribution over the years. Hopefully useful to share with Y11s.

I've already integrated this new tool into the Lesson Curator so the same content can be easily displayed on the white board:

Alternatively you can import the PDF into the blank board too:

Inline with @mathsjem.bsky.social post on book layout, I've been trialing my โœจNEWโœจ book structure tool.

No more split attention between listening, copying, and thinking. Everything weaker students need. One place. Full focus. Better learning.

Hopefully a buttery smooth performance yesterday. A new server came online with 4ร— the capacity of the previous one for handling user traffic!

Music studio to summarise a lesson ๐ŸŽต

Donโ€™t just get students to watch a YouTube video to learn a catchy verse to recall key knowledgeโ€ฆ get them to write it themselves!

Here's a word cloud of all the words from AQA H P1 to 3 from the June 2025 papers. Which words are your students unsure of? It was useful to display for Y11 this afternoon, then dig into the definitions.

Here's some resources to help:

I think it is so important to have an escape in this job. For me, I love my Tuesday nights taking part in @gozwift.bsky.social racing league. My team won this season and I got the final win in a photo finish ๐Ÿ†๐Ÿฅต๐Ÿคข๐Ÿคฎ #cycling

I've spent this morning refining the logic around how you add your timetable to the system. Hopefully it's a lot smoother now ๐Ÿ˜

I'll share a few things I've been working on later this week that help refine my day-to-day workflow.

While preparing lessons for tomorrow using the exam builder, I noticed illegal characters in the question set I was using that could have prevented a download. If this happened to you too, apologies! Hopefully fixed now.

I'm rolling out more child friendly success criteria in the Lesson Curator (when using the pair examples) and Cover Notes tools:

โ€ชWhoops! Forgot about the more recent updates relating to notation. The fractions and angles questions should pull through fine now. Will make the exam question font size a little bigger first thing in the morning.โ€ฌ

This has been extremely effective with my Year 11 classes following the mocks. Being able to quickly create topic tests with built-in QLA has been invaluable, giving clear insight into whether previously identified knowledge gaps have been addressed โ€” all in just a few clicks.

Are you doing coordinates soon?!?

Improving the tool based on feedback from the group I last tried it with, my new dot to dot coordinate checks went down a treat with Y7 this week.
