Brilliant loss again young lady

What have I missed?Kinda feeling a bit guilty for ripping into the teachers at my girls' school now, but only a bit - they deserved it IMO
Hope your next set of lessons go well - each one a learning experience eh

In the 10s at last!
With all this stuff you have to do for your teaching it makes me wonder how half of the teachers at dds school even managed to qualify & get a job!
Mind you her head got an award from gordon brown last week for the best head in england!
Well done on your great resuly hun xxx

hardly.. quite a few of them are expected to fail their first exam - mainly because some havent done GCSE level ICT at all, whereas the rest did OCR Nationals which is all coursework, so lack of exam sort of leaves them unprepared for AS Level. Its difficult to engage them as well as the topic is really formal and boring and John their actual teacher has opted to teach them for the pre-release materials so I have 2 hours a week to teach them theory..
my first observation went really well - really pleased with it. I missed out on a few standards - didnt set homework and a couple of times i told kids off for shouting out then took answers from other kids who shouted, as well as picking the same kids over and over.. but got a couple other standards signed off - a good few are things i cant do without teaching for a few weeks though.
btw, cheers all for listening to me rant about such boring stuff - if you are vaguely interested, all the numbers i mention are years, and x / y are the bands they are streamed into - x is high ability and y is lower ability. Number after their band is their set - each band has four sets - 1 being highest ability in the band, 4 being the lowest.
I have a nice mix - 7x3, 8x3 and 8y4, 9x3 and 9x1, 10x small option (10's and 11's come out of bands into small or large option ICT - small is 5hrs a fortnight, large is 5hrs per week) and Year 12 for 2 hours of theory.
going to try for an early night tonight as I am dead on my feet..
food for today:
B - oatsosimple apple and blueberry (3)
L - 2 slices wholemeal bread (3) ham (1) 30g dairylea light (1) lettuce (0) banana mullerlight (1.5)
T - quorn chicken pieces (2.5) gravy granules (1) carrot, onion, mushroom (0) jacket potato (2.5)
S - chocolate biscuit (2.5) cadburys multipack caramel (4)
total: 22 points

Really good to hear the observation went well, I'm sure the difficulties you mentioned you will overcome with experience. Great to hear you sounding so enthusiastic and positive - you must be knackered!!
