Well, good luck tomorrow for everyone going back. I think this term can be exhausting, so go steady. But tomorrow should be good: it’s a full moon tonight, there have been fireworks all weekend, it is forecast to be windy and possibly rain. So it should be just, fucking, ace.


Great day walking (in the pouring rain!) with @kateowbridge and @justoneoftheta1 Now time to dry off and enjoy celebrity traitors later!

Worried about moving over to a feedback rather than marking policy? Still writing VF in books? Staff marking so parents have something to see? This is a great blog that addresses those issues. sarahlarsen.school.blog/2019/08/25/mak…


One day more!!!

This is false. Please read this week's deep investigation into the impact of these reforms on small schools in Schools Week.

Moving onto his third 'myth', Oliver says: 'I also want to address the suggestion that we haven't considered head teacher stress. This couldn't be further from the truth.'



I can say from my current situation, being in the ‘window’ with a new framework is causing added pressure. I am calm about it and fairly easy going but the change has added workload. You can’t get away from that.


What a week! Highlights of course been about chn. One of our kids came 1st at cross country comp and I took great pleasure in grabbing a rugby ball off a Y6 child and booting it for it to hit a parasol pole on the playground! 👊 Guinea pigs due in two weeks…chn super excited!

Wouldn’t pass the KS2 SATs spelling test…

Oh dear. Almost like a metaphor for the state of the Tories.

I feel like I have worked a whole week in one day today. I am not holding out until tomorrow evening for wine I can bloody tell you that now! 🍷


Driving to school this morning…usually it’s just a scatty pigeon so imagine my excitement! The rest of the day was less flamboyant.

NEW BLOG: Ofsted - Still Toxic After All These Years "Ofsted has finally published its new inspection arrangements: two defiant fingers jabbed up at the World and waggled in the faces of those who had dared to hope for change." johncosgrove55.wordpress.com/2025/09/12/ofs…

So, I’m calling the scorecard outcome now. OFSTED will ignore criticism & proceed with the colour chart thing. They’ll justify its implementation as what parents want in order to choose a school. When in fact very few get a choice & if they do, OFSTED plays little part in it.

A pretty sobering message but one we all should heed. Work isn't everything, it's really important but not the most important thing.
