Good to hear from Stephen Evans @LearnWorkUK about Labour market in Wales. Only 1 in 10 economically inactive people with disabilities receive help with search for employment!

It’s been a while since I headed into the office from inside the M25! Calm & crisp this morning. #AutumnVibes

Everyone seems desperate to “reform” the SEND system and yet the ideal system they describe is literally the one we already have. What’s needed is resourcing and accountability to make it work as intended.

Crikey! It’s been a while since I had to set the alarm this early! But it’s for a good reason, off to an @AELPUK round table to discuss Functional Skills maths. Looking forward to some great discussions #FunctionalSkills #NumeracyMatters #SkillsEqualJobs

"The SEND crisis could be solved. It would need improvements in training teachers, a support-staff recruitment drive with pay increases, a move away from Gradgrindian practices of English education, the restoration of Sure Start,' says @johnharris1969: buff.ly/3YZaPYc

Quick! What's 6 x 8?
This heatmap shows the trickiest multiplications for kids aged 5-8. Love to see a similar study on adults to see how they compare!
#dataviz #maths
ALT A heatmap highlights the multiplications kids aged 5-8 most struggle with. 11 times 11, 8 times 4, 8 times 6, 12 times 8, and 6 times 8 are all the most challenging.
