I wrote today to my MP, James Cleverly, about the cuts to the AMSP. I am not optimistic that much can be done, but you never know. If we could get every maths teacher to write then maybe they might think again. Maybe. #ALevelMaths

Such sad news, which shows a huge lack of judgement. AMSP has a huge influence on promoting maths careers, enrichment and providing support for young people from disadvantaged areas to enjoy and excel in mathematics. So much for the UK being a world leader in STEM.

Good idea to focus on that. I think the z score is under looked as students don't need to convert with the latest calculators
