We too have a bike library at school... Adults and children

Today I told 12 TAs their fixed term contracts would be ending in July despite having 3x the NA EHCPs. I have no budget savings to make. It was a devastating day. I question what I am doing. It's certainly not for the good of the children. There is no money to save. So underfunded

Are you primary or secondary?

Imagine how well they could do if they got fair access to TV, news, QT etc!

‘Ofsted has shown an institutional disinterest in inclusion’ Ofsted’s proposed reforms fall woefully short of the sea change needed when it comes to inclusion, argue Baroness Longfield and Jonny Uttley

Ofsted has an “institutional disinterest”in why some schools welcome the most vulnerable children, while others “push them away”.

There are so many overlaps between judgements! It's going to come down to inconsistencies between inspectors again. Think I need an extra 20 hours in the day! Also a problem that you can have strong inclusion or strong attainment but you can't have both

Bought 3 copies for school today. Looking forward to sharing it. The English leads were buzzing after your training session yesterday

I agree, it's a wonderful book. I have a half a dozen copies in my office that I give to children when needed

Find one old friend then open their bio. Look at who follows them and used that list . It's the quickest way I found to track most people

No it doesn't matter. Some of ours come in early and leave early. Some stay late. Recommendation is by 8.15 and leave no earlier than 3.30 but I trust staff
Some work better from home. Many have their own childcare needs.

Built a large sandpit for the school. For the 1st week or 2 everyone played. Then our black chn stopped. Spoke to them, said parents wouldn't let them. Spoke to parents,told about sand and hair. I asked for solutions. We now have a large net full of shower caps! Any child can wear one... they do!!!

34 for me... Just started my 23rd year as a HT!
