Am interested in what roles you have been delegating?

Students do a fortnightly class test, have seven lessons per week, 4 period teacher does the test and other week aim is to revise in this lesson. Also introduced my Green Book policy, students complete independent work in their Green book. Teachers check regularly for work done beyond set/class work
Would be good to know how much marking is done for set homework, do you mark it all, make solutions/answers available and then check students have marked their work, use Dr Frost? What sort of feedback is given, written, whole class or other?
Our aim is to roughly match the number of hours in class, so about 4-5 hours. Teachers set work for their class and there is structured Independent work that they do, independent work is completed in a ‘Green book’ which we occasionally check.
Single, two teachers: one doe Pure and Stats, other does Pure and Mech. FM have four teachers, they teach single content first with two doing Pure and Stats and other two doing Pure and Mech. They then move on to two doing Core Pure and Further Stats and other two do Core Pure and Further Mech.
My last school had Shell, Remove, Hundred, LVI and UVI.
I was lucky today and got two from them!

We give our students an a one period (40 mins with 10 ET) assessment every two weeks. I source questions from the Edexcel topics tests along with past exam questions, using all boards. I aim for 1.2 mins per mark to get them used to the time pressure.
We’ve been marking like this the past few years though for all mocks and end of year (Sixth form) we do blind marking across all subjects. It is an efficient way to mark, some loss of an overview for your own class though QLA can help, we also give a brief marking comment for each qu we mark.
A screenshot of the folder with the files in. There are files for 5 sessions: TMUA, MAT, STEP, PAT and ESAT, with handouts and answers to each.
Every year in the spring term, I run a series of information sessions for our first year (year 12) students on the main STEM admissions tests (TMUA, MAT, STEP, PAT, and ESAT)
Sharing my slides for the 2025 sessions in case they're useful for anyone 😊
