GCSE Maths distributions by board and age (16 and 17+). AQA’s entry has a larger proprtion of resits than Pearson. OCR and Eduqas don’t report age data so are lumped together, but Eduqas’ grade distribution suggests most of their entry is 17+. OCR tend to have a larger F entry.

Ada Lovelace Day is on Tuesday 14 October this year, which might seem like a long way away, but if you’re organising an indie event, it’s practically right round the corner. So why not start thinking about what you're doing to do for ALD and get organising!

Further evidence of England's improvement in maths today with the release of the TIMSS 2023 test which allows for comparisons across countries.

Particularly good news at year 9 (13 year olds) where we've seen a decent jump despite the pandemic (unlike other countries).

Something positive is happening in maths education in England. @ncetm.bsky.social Director of Secondary, Carol Knights, talked to secondary school leaders yesterday, about how to ensure the conditions in schools might support teaching for mastery.

Aligning curriculum and assessment reform with teaching for mastery in FE GCSE Resit/FSQ Maths Charlie Stripp and Emma Bell explore how curriculum and assessment reform could transform the maths experience of post-16 learners

📊 Around 170k students resit GCSE Maths each year
😟Only 1 in 4 GCSE resit students achieve a grade 4 by age 19
💪Change is needed. Don't miss NCETM’s Charlie Stripp & @eltimbre.bsky.social in a new blog post on how curriculum & assessment reform could make a difference for all learners💡

Pound for pound, there is no better investment schools can make than teacher CPD.

Forget shiny new things. Without expert teachers, it’s all just a waste of money.
