Thinking of every Year 6 student and teacher receiving SATs results today. Take a breath, give yourself credit, and remember you’re so much more than a test score 💙

#SATs2025 #KS2Teachers #KeyStage2 #Year6Results

2026 has officially been announced as the #NationalYearOfReading

Reading is linked to a host of positive outcomes, yet just one in three children and young people (8-18) say they enjoy reading in their free time. This is a great initiative that we hope will get the UK reading again! 📚

➡️ Get Charles Booth's map + more FREE, ready to use resources 👉 reteach.org.uk/admin/readin...

🧠 Classroom prompt:

Show Charles Booth's map and ask:

→ What story is this map trying to tell—and who gets left out?
→ How do we map poverty today?
→ What’s changed? What hasn’t?

🔎Maps like these can show students how to:

✔️ Visualise inequality
✔️ Question how data is used
✔️ Connect past and present society

🗺️In 1890s London, Charles Booth created colour-coded poverty maps that defined neighbourhoods for decades.

⁉️What if maps weren’t neutral?
