Hi, Anyone else been invited to the conference on April 1st (!) at The National Motorcycle Museum, Solihull? How can I resist 4 hours in the company of all those lovely Ofsted personnel - and the more lovely Outstanding providers obviously? There are workshops on "how to stay Outstanding in the EYFS, and other topical issues" - I'll take notes and feedback to you all. Or perhaps take a list of the questions we'd REALLY like answered............? Nona

Hi everyone, having read all the really excellent replies to job problems I hope that someone here can give me some sensible advice as I am not getting anywhere with the heirachy at my school. I am really sad there and having only started in January, I am already looking for a new job (and started to do so after just 3 weeks). There are issues over the amount of release time I should have, CPD, classroom support....it goes on. I keep bringing it up with management but no one does anything about it and I just feel as if I am wingeing ALL the time. I am very worried about telling them I am thinking of leaving as I have heard on the grapevine of very unprofessional practi…

As some of you may know, my hubby has been in hospital for over 4 weeks now, very seriously ill. Well I have some news and I need to shout about it - THEY REMOVED HIS TRACEOCTOMY TUBE TODAY!!!!! Was I there to see it - No!! Thanks to my son I had caught the dreaded 24 hour V&D yesterday and am not allowed up into ICU until tomorrow at the earliest! On the plus side, after Martin's sister rang me to say they were taking the tube out, I then rang the unit to see if it was true, the nurse put me on hold and the next voice I heard was Martin's. Well to be honest it didn't sound like him at all, as 4 weeks of not using your vocal chords kinda alters the ton…

Well my quest to meet as many FSF-ers in 2009 continues apace. We had such a lovely evening tonight - MrsWeasley and I took the now obligatory satnav-related detour to a farmyard in the dark en route to Chicken Licken's house and then on to Oxford (with almost a handbrake turn to accommodate the driver's "not seeing the road sign until the last minute" habit). Hope you've recovered from the effects of the G-force, Chicken Licken! Wolfie had chosen a good venue to meet not too far from where she and Mrs Tiggy Winkle were staying (separately, having been unable to book the same hotel but that's a different story). Good food, nice wine and chocolate fudge cake to di…
