Looks like it’s not hard to see all the GCSE maths papers and “model solutions” posted all over social media today, primarily TikTok…
A huge problem… yes!
Have I made my revision checklists, revision booklets and a huge revision pack for my students for tomorrow using them….
Probably best not to say… incase I get harassed again 😂
Checklists coming tomorrow 👍

This final term is relentless.
2 Year 11 classes.
The pressure is real.
This final term isn’t about doing more.
It’s about doing less, better.
🗳️ do you agree?
Most starter activities don’t fail because of effort.
They fail because of design.
This is what changed everything for us 👇
There are two ways starter activities usually get used in schools.
⌛️One is random questions thrown together each lesson.
📈The other is a systematic routine that actually builds long-term learning.
Most departments end up with the first.
Our maths department built the second.
It’s reduced teacher workload, improved coherence across classes, and strengthened students’ retention of key topics.
Here’s the system 👇

The starter also acts as live diagnostic assessment.
As teachers circulate they quickly see patterns:
If a topic keeps appearing wrong, teachers have the autonomy to say:
"We need another lesson on this."
The data directly informs teaching.

Starter activities shouldn’t be:
Random
rushed
or reinvented every lesson.
When designed well they can:
✅ reinforce key knowledge
✅ reduce teacher workload
✅ improve curriculum coherence
✅ strengthen long-term retention
