Actually mine was 8 when she sat in the first ResearchEd crΓ¨che and now she’s at Glasgow Uni, so I only need to look in the mirror I guess!

When Coldplay covered this in the Live Lounge, Chris Martin went up in my books. Then when he said he’d NEVER HEARD OF IT BEFORE LAST WEEK- well…

They haven’t paid Β£1000 of their own money to simply turn up and watch the golf! They’re determined to also let the world know what utter arseholes they are.

I still have a laugh with a colleague from 20 years ago about a class in my first year of teaching that we called 9 Zoo.
There’s always a 9 Zoo.

Used something from Don Steward today. It was obviously brilliant of course.
I now make a habit on first use, of telling the class about him and his resources. Such a loss. Great man.

β€œDon’t sell weapons to kill children” - arrest them

β€œDissolve parliament. Fight back or die” - free speech innit.

And the flags. Also slightly unnerving. What do they mean? What was this march even for? If we’re accepting it was just free speech, what were they actually trying to say?

Hey Maths people.
One of my Ukrainian students wrote this answer for roots of a graph. I know comma format is OK for decimals, but I immediately saw these as co-ordinates without brackets. Should I have a conversation with them about using points not commas where graphs are involved?

Is there any data on the private spending by parents for the same reason? Whatever it is, it’s just about to jump by 15% !
