Single mum to teenage boy. Avid reader. Primary teacher of 28 years. Currently Y2. Love books, cats, coffee and South Devon.
Just heard today of another local school who had a child whose EHCP stated they needed their own room and two adults. But the funding was nowhere near going to cover that. They'd have needing building work for one thing!!!

In my class alone, 52% SEND, 17% EHCP, one of whom has significant medical needs, a life limiting condition and severe global learning delay.Y3 with one TA. I know what each child needs. I just can't provide it in a mainstream class and still teach the other pupils well.

Brought me tears. What a wonderful, wonderful person. An incredible role model.

He's probably a bit out of his comfort zone audience-wise, as well dancing. His usual target demographic is teenaged boys, football fans etc. My son has watched him and he can be quite funny in his own territory.

I couldn't get to the end of tonight's even. Just too long all at once. I wish they'd do the first one in 2 parts like they used to do.

I am definitely prejudiced against them, but accept I have a bit of book snobbery going on there. If I put this aside, then I quite like the Ben Miller 'The Day I...' series and the Tom Fletcher Christmasaurus books definitely kept my son a reader in Y5 and 6.

🤣 I love that! I obviously share the same sense of humour. But Christmas? Wow! I am in awe of your organisational abilities.

Very often forgotten. Or the expectation is that we suppress our own feelings because it's not about us, it's about the children. The same with MH. Lots of awareness for children, but staff MH isn't acceptable.

Amazing night at Llangollen Pavilion last night.

I am definitely 80% caffeine and my pockets are more magical than Mary Poppins' carpet bag.
