­Bye bye blackboards 👋 Just 1% of teachers used a blackboard when we asked in 2018, now no teachers use them. If only Teacher Tapp had existed 20 years ago to document their demise from ubiquitous classroom tool to dusty (literally!) relic.   But with blackboards out of the way, what's next? Over the past six years, use of whiteboards has dropped 5 percentage points. They are still the most used display tool, but might they be heading in the direction of their dustier counterpart?   Use of interactive whiteboards is increasing (up 6 percentage points) as are visualisers (up a whopping 14 percentage points).    Our question for you: Are your resources compatible with these display methods?!

Which schools use commercial standardised tests 🤔 The majority of primary schools use commercial standardised tests at KS2. Of these, over half are using the tests several times a year across several year groups.    There are one or two exceptions though... ⚪ Schools with better Ofsted ratings appear to use the tests less often and are the group least likely to use them at all. ⚪ Independent schools also have a different profile with significantly more running them once a year rather than at multiple time points. This finding was first shared exclusively in the Teacher Tapp newsletter. Get in touch to find out more about this dataset or to commission your own Teacher Tapp questions. We also have a handy list of our top testing and assessment questions, we'll pop the link in the comments 😘
