I had a nice chat with Chris before finishing off the OFSTED Training and then, later on, attending one entitled Handling Complaints in School. It really was very good indeed - very informative and helpful.
I've got two more coming up in the next month - next week's one should be heavy, all about exclusions, both short term and permanent. We ought to know about that as it is wrapped around with statutory stuff.
And the other should be much more positive - Supporting Your Head Teacher.
I will be all trained out by the end of term!

Today, as usual, starts with Slimming World followed by a weekly shop in Morrisons. I have a very short list this week which is great.
And then . . . ? Maybe bedroom, maybe garden - probably not both though!
One of the hanging baskets, taken between showers yesterday.
And I have six cucumbers coming along, still very small; the biggest one is 2cms long but it's a mini one so that's not bad. Once they really get going they grow very quickly so guess what I will be taking for the SW hamper once that happens! :-)
Happy Friday, everyone. Wishing you a lovely, happy, satisfying day. xx
Your hanging basket is beautiful. Your session on exclusion should be interesting . Teaching seems much harder than it used to be, or is it that it's very different? I know many young teachers leave after a handful of years.
ReplyDeleteI think it is very much harder. And going for a headship used to be the pinnacle - there's no way I would want that job nowadays!
DeleteI'm well chuffed with my hanging baskets - they are beautiful. I can't take any credit though - good old Home Bargains! xx
Hanging baskets are fantastic. Well done on completing the training. I was at a huge conference yesterday linked to community planning. Goos speakers which made the time fly past.
ReplyDeleteIt makes such a difference if the speaker is good. xx
DeleteHappy Friday Joy x

Thanks, Alison - and back to you too. xx
DeleteThe colours in your hanging basket are stunning. I used to teach a group of excluded teenage girls many years ago. Poor kids had really troubled backgrounds
ReplyDeletePoor girls - life can be so very hard for some. xx
DeleteThe hanging baskets look beautiful
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sharon. The do brighten up my eye-space in the garden. xx
DeleteGorgeous baskets, the colour combination is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Thanks, Jackie. I can't claim any credit, of course but, yes, there's wonderful depth of colour there. xx
DeleteBeautiful hanging basket. It looks so colourful and vibrant. The plants look very healthy too.
