00:00 - 00:03Sir the papers have been returned and we are preparing to mark
00:04 - 00:05markschemes have been issued to examiners
00:05 - 00:07and we have mananged to secure low rates of pay
00:08 - 00:12we fully expect to get all of this marked in time
00:12 - 00:15results should be ready to send out in August
00:17 - 00:19and what did people think
00:19 - 00:21of the actual papers?
00:24 - 00:26sir
00:27 - 00:28we had
00:31 - 00:33we had one question that contradicts the teaching guidance
00:34 - 00:36it was on completing the square
00:53 - 00:58If you write questions, check questions, sign them off, remain. If not leave.
01:13 - 01:15we are trying to increase entries
01:15 - 01:17all this work was to try and increase entries
01:18 - 01:23and you ask them to complete the square where a isn't 1
01:25 - 01:28i cannot believe this mess
01:29 - 01:31what is the teaching guidance for?
01:31 - 01:34teachers rely on this document
01:34 - 01:37i told you when we made version 2.3
01:37 - 01:40remove all questions where a is greater than 1
01:40 - 01:42sir we made it for the most able students only
01:42 - 01:46most able? this isn't a-level
01:46 - 01:48sir they could have just equated coeffcients
01:48 - 01:52equating coefficients is what we expect for identities
01:53 - 01:54was there an identity symbol?
01:56 - 01:57what next? partial fractions
01:57 - 02:00they can be done by equating coefficients
02:00 - 02:03might as well ask them to integrate it after
02:04 - 02:08then ask them to prove Fermat's Last Theorem
02:08 - 02:13we are supposed to make the papers MORE ACCESSIBLE
02:14 - 02:16how else will we get people to switch from Edexcel?
02:17 - 02:21we do you think we asked them to label parts of a circle on paper 2
02:27 - 02:29what have we got left now?
02:30 - 02:34who will pay us? Even further maths is in danger
02:34 - 02:36the level 2 certificate
02:41 - 02:42Edexcel
02:43 - 02:47They bring out their own version and it's better
02:48 - 02:53what will we do next, revamp GCSE statistics?
02:54 - 02:56all this because you wanted to challenge them
02:56 - 02:59you didn't even ensure that c/a was an integer
03:00 - 03:02at least make it easier to factorise
03:04 - 03:07It's ok there will be jobs at OCR
03:14 - 03:16they will be laughing at us
03:19 - 03:23it won't be long before they post memes making fun of this
03:25 - 03:26how can we recover?
03:31 - 03:33has it been uploaded?
03:40 - 03:46once it is on allaboutmaths everyone will have it and they will know we messed up
03:46 - 03:49if it isn't already on TikTok anyway
03:53 - 03:56go and tweet about mathsconf35
