Towards the end of the Autumn term, I noticed a common theme in all the schools I visited: “Christmas! But that’s okay, Christmas is always the full on, busy time of year isn’t it? Staff who struggle on? We need to take a step back and assess the current situa...

The next 12 minutes of the lesson involved Mrs Gaysford. Managing ‘helpful’ members of the class variously offering to cut the sellotape o...As a teac...
