Not the best thing to have at 11:00 on a Sunday night, especially with the week I have ahead of me... We have an Ofsted (Office for Standards in Education - the big inspection we had this time last year) visit on Tuesday and Wednesday. Not a full visit, just a mini one to check on our progress since last year. They want to see how we have improved our behaviour management throughout the school... Ha!! This week could be a very interesting one.
I haven't really said much about school this year, probably because I am struggling (and I don't often like to admit that). I can't really say it's just me, though. People all over the school are hanging by a thread, old and new alike... The kids are getting more and more daring with the stunts they pull and no matter how bad, punishment seems obsolete. There is very little consistency when it comes to managing behaviour and the kids are just as aware of this problem as the teachers - scary! It is bad enough that the unions are getting involved. And now HMI (Her Majesty's Inspectorate) wants to know what improvements we've made!?!
This is not the kind of week you want to have just two weeks before the end of term.
