…and the College coming together in this way. TDT was one of three core organisations that formed the Claim Your College coalition for the creation of the College, and this will give those who care about professional development a strong platform to advocate and achieve in the future.
The CPD landscape has changed so much in the last decade and the TDT journey has taken us further than we ever imagined. When TDT began, CPD was barely on the policy agenda and now it’s central to government policy and leadership frameworks. I am so pleased to now see TDT… (cont)

We didn't write the Sunday Times article. That was by a journalist who saw our report and had some additional quotes from members of our team. So the language in that article is not ours.
It does indeed. In our report that we wrote we are clear that it is "as little as 14% of the marks". Either way, it is genuinely problematic to say that a standard pass is possible even if the range is between 14% and say 20%. It doesn't show a broad range of competency across fundamental maths.
Thank you again to our brilliant Chair, Professor Lord Tarassenko CBE, to our co-leads Dr Helen Drury and David Monis Weston, and to all of our fantastic Executive Group. Their experience and insight has been truly invaluable.
And this is not the end! More from Maths Horizons will be coming...
We shared our 7 recommendations in the House of Lords in May, and we are delighted to be able to share the full report today.
Since September 2024, we have heard from hundreds of experts through interviews and consultation feedback, as well as roundtable discussions and school visits, as well as conducting large-scale polling through Public First.
Today, Maths Horizons publishes our full report about the future of maths curriculum and assessment in England, and features in the Sunday Times here: www.thetimes.com/uk/education...
We’re very happy to listen to critiques and alternative viewpoints of any of our suggestions or analyses, of course. You can read the report here: www.mathshorizons.uk/reports
Good morning. Our report says that England’s system is in the best position yet. We’re not suggesting that the Grade 4 standard is too easy but that it’s currently possible to reach it with too few questions which is an exam design issue. We don’t suggest anywhere that all teachers should use AI.
Wow Sue, your allotment looks amazing! What an amazing achievement. My husband and I had one for five years and I don’t think it ever looked as tidy as yours!
🧮 'Our new report finds a surprising consensus: the curriculum is overcrowded and assessment doesn’t always reflect what matters'

This means everything to me. I’m only alive today due the miracles of medical science and my donor’s (and donor’s family) unbelievable generosity to donate a liver to me in 2009 to cure a rare disease. #WorldLiverDay organdonation.nhs.uk
Really interesting article from @robinmoirawhite.bsky.social on the recent Supreme Court ruling. Solidarity to all my trans friends, family and everyone else on a tough week for you. 🏳️⚧️

Luke, this looks fascinating! Was this prompted by the book The Unaccountability Machine? If not, it’s a very thought provoking read.

The education sector is being urged to 'get involved' as the government launches a call for evidence as part of its national professional qualification (NPQ) framework review
And it obscures the real scandal - which is the totally inadequate child services support for kids post exclusion, the disaster of CAMHS, and the shocking lack of AP places (and in many places AP quality). Schools have a right to exclude - but excluded kids still have a right to an education.
“the greatest risk of this AI technological wave is that we heed the siren calls to remove things from the curriculum if “AI can do it” - this feels precisely the opposite of the right approach.”
