I've just seen this article on twitter. Apparently it says that in primary school boys are two and a half times more likely than girls to have statements at primary school. At secondary school, they were nearly three times more likely to have statements compared to girls. Interesting reading! Maz

Don't know if this applies to every Sainsbury's, but we have just bought some fabulous woven baskets in our local branch! Three nesting ones, all good sizes, very sturdy, original price was £30, and they are down to £7.50 for the set of three........an absolute bargain!

Why Oh Why, do some parents think that they need to get their children recognising numbers and letters! We have a number of children aged from just 2 to 4 that supposedly know all letters and numbers. The youngest of these children is barely talking, and the oldest needs to learn how to put his coat on! Am thinking a parent workshop is needed to teach them about the things that ar REALLY important.

Aghhhhhh! (feel a bit better now )
