My website, dawsonmaths.co.uk now has links to over 4000 screencasts designed to help pupils and students revise maths independently. New Skills Checks added (but not yet completed) using @mathsbox1 codes to help find the appropriate level for pupils. Please RT

The Secretary of State wrote to school leaders today about Relationships & Sex Education. Here is our response: buff.ly/42Y21Bq

This was the opportunity for @GillianKeegan @RishiSunak to end this dispute. They have chosen not to do so. This is how little they respect our profession and what little value they place on education in England. This is a political choice to present teachers as the enemy.

This isnt an offer from Government it is an insult.
£1000 non-consolidated.
4.5% in September
AND UNFUNDED!
I will be voting to REJECT. No more pay cuts!
A teacher in 6th year:
🏴 £48.5k (from Jan)
🏴 £44K (from Sept)
🏴 £39K
Vote no! Full funding and parity is what we need

UNBELIEVABLE.
So: the 'wraparound childcare at schools from 8am to 6pm by 2026' is actually just the government telling schools to stay open and charge parents for it.
💷 Exclusive: The government expects schools to charge parents for 'wraparound childcare' once pilot funding to get provision up and running ends in 2026.
The Treasury believes schools will be able to fund the provision 'self-sufficiently'

Is Gillian Keegan serious about resolving the teacher dispute?
On Mon, ASCL, NAHT, NASUWT and NEU sent her a letter suggesting we go to ACAS for talks.
Today she replied saying no.
There is some progress in Wales and in Scotland.
But she’s saying no to talks!

Start of term shout-out for formtimeideas.com if you've never seen it or (forgotten about it!)
I've given it a refresh over half term. The new vote is great, but the best bit is finally having all the boxes in a row the SAME HEIGHT.
Back from half term tomorrow?
Ease you and your tutor group into Monday morning with formtimeideas.com
Loads of one-click activities and the brand new "Daily Referendum"
Charlie Dawson retweeted
Some* people are calling it @TeacherTapp for pupils...
NEW: Daily referendum on the formtimeideas.com homepage.
*literally no one
“Should university be free for everyone?”
It will be interesting to compare these results with the daily referendum at formtimeideas.com
I’ve got a sneaky feeling what pupils might vote for…
76%Yes
24%No

This is an amazing paid opportunity - please share with your networks and/or talk to me of you want any more info 😁
Are you thinking about teaching Chemistry, Computing, Maths, Physics German or French? Would you like to be paid £900 to take part in a three-week teaching internship this summer? We have a limited number of internships on offer.

Deeply disappointed with @GillianKeegan's gaslighting of the teaching profession. I was expecting much better after hearing @RoryStewartUK say how much he respected her on The Rest is Politics podcast. Just joined @NEUnion (still @NASUWT member) to make the profession great again

It's no wonder that recruitment and retention are difficult 😭😭
Independent research confirms that teachers, along with social workers, have experienced the worst pay growth in the UK in the last decade.
The median salary for a teacher has grown by only 4.3%, compared with a typical 15% growth for all workers.

I’ve rather neglected sharing artfulmaths.com, but it’s all still there, jam packed with fully-resourced #MathematicalArt lessons, and all still FREE!
Perfect for #EndOfTerm lessons: from paper folding and pursuit curves through to epicycloids and mazes!
