Trying to be more present here and so wanted to share my work in progress padlet on Diversifying the Mathematics Curriculum. I am also keen to come and lead assemblies for students and PD for teachers (free!) on this subject if anyone is interested!

My boy got an offer to do MMath at Warwick. I am incredibly proud of him and also how can this baby leave home?

We've had lots of interest in the 'Maths into Data Science and AI' course for non-A level Maths students

It's ideal for students of Core Maths or A level Computer Science

Bookings for the spring term course close on Fri 5 Dec: amsp.org.uk/event/b08828...

In #MathsToday Y13 filled this normal distribution table #ALevelMaths

I love this resource, especially when students get to the second one of the bottom row and get stuck, at which point I usually prompt them to look for where 0.7778 appears elsewhere. But today, that didn’t happen…

This year I have printed some mathematical advent calendars. Turns out this was more expensive to do than I anticipated. I have a limited number available if any of you would like to buy one? £8 including postage and a couple of extra little surprises.More details: buymeacoffee.com/drbennison/e...

Absolutely amazing two days in London at the Teaching Further Maths 1 study days. I will never get over how inspiring it is to watch a group of teachers work hard, support each other and really push themselves for the entire day. Applications for Spring courses open now 😁

The AMSP 'Maths of Data Science and AI' spring-term course for #ALevelMaths students is nearly full and we're likely to close applications later on today.

There's still places on our course for non-A level Maths students and our teacher PD course though: amsp.org.uk/maths-into-ai/

A new programme from the AMSP will raise awareness of links between maths and AI and develop understanding of related areas such as data modelling and its applications.

On Tuesday the boy who made me a mum will be 24. I was 21, had to take a year out of uni & had no idea how it would turn out. 19 years later he quit medicine after a year, took a year out & had no idea how it would turn out. It's all turning out great ❤️😁

In #mathstoday I’ve been desperately trying to find some short videos I remember on the maths needed in various careers, aimed at KS3/4 (rather than A Level which I can find on AMSP
@meimaths.bsky.social ) I’m sure one featured Grove Lodge Vets in Brighton. Any ideas anyone pls? Or similar?
