   Hi In the usual panic just before moderation. Last year I was told i needed something between my e-profile and observations in terms of tracking. I am happy with my observations and have had several joint sessions this year with LEA advisor all gone well. However when it comes to being able to track which observation lead me to believe that little Jonny could do scale point 3 in the autumn term short of looking through them all I don't have a system. I was just wondering what everyone else did. Thanks Jay

   I have been trying to persuade my colleagues to cut down on paperwork in order to spend more time interacting with children, and I had thought that this was something that Ofsted might support. Currently managers want us to try and record all activities that the children participate in every session - which I think is detrimental to interacting well with the children. However, in going through some recent ofsted reports I have just found the following (so maybe I am wrong - we do need to spend all our time recording what every child plays with every day???): "Whilst children have access to activities that enhance all areas of their learning and have the freedom t…

   Hello Everyone, Hope you are all well and happy. I was wondering if I could pick your brains. I'm being observed on Tuesday by the head teacher. She wants to see me working with the Higher achieving girls. My focus is problem solving and computation and the theme I am working on is Length and height. I know it is a big ask but has anyone got any wonderful ideas out there that will blow my head teacher away?? Many thanks for your help. Love Boogie

    Hi! I am interested to hear from those working in schools about the amount of time you are given for planning / profile observation writing during school hours (not including lunch breaks and after the children go home)? Thanks K8
