It’s good to see students developing their maths & English skills. Many have worked incredibly hard, and I’m sure will achieve excellent results in their exams.

Here’s a link to a post on 10 seriously brilliant maths careers … just some ideas!

Key Stage 2 (years 3–6)

A huge thank you to those students who have been diligently working towards SATS — you’re doing a great!

Take your time, relax, check your work, read the questions thoroughly …

Here’s a list of (UK) store names from a very enthusiastic student, can you work them out?

1. OUNPDDLAN
2. KPRARIM
3. ROID
4. KOIWL
5. OCSET
6. STOBO
7. M&B
8. ARZA

Key Stage 3 (years 7–9)

It’s always good to revise previous topics, and here’s a worksheet on multiplying fractions. Very useful for improving mental arithmetic, and working with questions throughout the GCSE curriculum.
