We've just found out we're in line to receive a grant of up to £2,500 to replace and buy new equipment. I know there have been a few discussions in the past about what resources/equipment people would recommend but even though I've searched I can't find any! We know what we what to update/replace but just want ideas of possible new equipment, hopefully storage won't be an issue as we're also in line for a refurbishment grant for the church halls we use. Could anyone please let me know what their wish list includes or post a link to previous discussions please. Thank-you Karrie

I Need To Vent!

Hello everyone, I feel like I need to let off some steam! Ok.... I've just started my final placement in my BA QTS, but it is my first placement in a KS1 class- I have always had FS placements. Since I told my school that that was the case it hasn't been the same and now I feel like I'm being treated as an inexperienced Yr1 student when I'm a Yr4. Maybe I'm wrong, but thats how I feel. I have only taught 2 lessons since I have been there (10 days), and as a Yr4 student, that isn't enough, i should be teaching 50% a day. I feel the teacher doesn't trust me to be alone with the children, why, I don't know. Maybe I'm being silly and have high expectations as my …

It's the in-laws 50th Wedding Anniversary in a couple of weeks and we have decided that we will put together a gift of 50 things that are golden.
