"Ice Cream Mixture" could be hitting the shelves soon with its prequel "Bottom Mixture"! Halton Libraries and their staff are fantastic, fabulous resources and lots going on ♥️

Short thread on how DfE sneaked out a £250 million cut to school budgets in the middle of a pandemic and how it will impact the poorest and most vulnerable pupils No publicity, no great public announcement as Department for Education cut £1/4 billion from its Pupil Premium budget

The extra workload serving a community of significant disadvantage is immense. Cuts to local authorities have also meant a vast reduction in the support we used to tap into. More boots on the ground is what we need.

My birthday is on August 10 and a great way to wish me a happy birthday would be to gift the Lego Women of NASA set to a girl you know and tag me in the photo you post. I would love to see a lot of photos of future women in science, technology, engineering, and math in my timeline.

After advice on entering students for British Physics Olympiad please. Do you cover A level material necessary in class beforehand or do they self teach or something else? Rts appreciated #chatphysics Chat Physics Chris Baker is mostly on threads @chrisbaker108 Peter Edmunds 🦄 @BenyohaiPhysics The Quarky Teacher 🤓

Lovely time with The Storybarn and Halton Libraries this morning. Both children had a great time and we've read Angry Cookie by Laura Dockrill twice since getting home. Thanks to everyone involved with arranging this fantastic event

Such a sensible argument that so many somehow disagree with. Hoping this happens as well as proportional representation (pie in the sky, I know) James Wynne #ProportionalRepresentation #electoralreform #endthemonarchy theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

It's certainly not "a natural thing" for girls to not want to do physics or hard maths. It's a stereotype reinforced by comments like today's plus unnecessary gendering from birth through primary and beyond. #girlsinphysics #physics Katharine Birbalsingh Institute of Physics #hardmaths

The chances of a girl from a single sex school going on to enter A-Level physics are around 3.1 times higher than those of a girl from a mixed school. But how much of this is to do with the single sex environment and how much with other factors? ffteducationdatalab.org.uk/2023/07/why-ar…

Around 2% of female pupils in mixed schools go on to enter A-Level physics. But in single sex schools it's nearly 6%. ffteducationdatalab.org.uk/2023/07/why-ar…

3D printing quarks ready for next year's particle physics topic. Hoping it'll be a good visual aid for combining quarks #chatphysics #alevelphyiscs #physics #3dprinting

Another ridiculous paper from AQA. Students coming out feeling dejected and that their two years of study have not mattered. This shouldn't be their lasting memory of physics. Really disappointed #aqaphysics #paper2 #alevelphysics Chat Physics #aqapaper2 #physics

Well done to all the 2024 A Level Physicists! Seems like a nice paper 3 and Turning Points, tricky but fair and it rewards hard work. Nearly summer ☀️.... #aqaphysics #alevelphysics #physicspaper3 #physics
