What would you all suggest for preparing our upstairs bathroom floor for tiling?

Currently it is standard T&G floorboards with gaps here and there where it was repaired by the previous owner.

My first thought was to put a thin ply over the existing and screw it down. Do I need to do anything else?

Ideally keeping thickness to a minimum.

I dont have any tiles in mind yet, but once the hexagon one is finished and usable I want to start on this one.

Thanks, Cat
