@ICT_MrP We had it 4 weeks ago. I agree totally that experiences are inconsistent and that is a major problem. I also think they have left outstanding schools so long between inspections that it is impossible to maintain that standard with their new framework.
@ICT_MrP I am sure they are not always like this but I felt like they came in looking for the positives. Yes there were late nights and early starts but as SLT I expected that.
@ICT_MrP An inadequate ofsted 6 years ago left me fearful of them. This time they were fair, approachable and thorough. They checked constantly that we were happy with their conduct and during the reading deep dive, the lead inspector was incredibly inquisitive and gave me time to explain

Our Year 6 librarians really enjoyed their final task: Opening the 'Brilliant Box of Books' given to the school by @ReadforGoodUK Gasps of recognition, surprise and curiosity- thank you so much.
@MayParkPri Beijing class have arrived safely at Bristol university for the Lonnie Johnson day. We have enjoyed listening to @cargomovement Laurence Hoo reading his poetry and telling us more about Lonnie Johnson.
Year 5 and 6 @MayParkPri were so lucky to have a visit today from a Nicaraguan Coffee farmer. Erika is part of a Fairtrade Cooperative. She was inspirational. Thank you to the Bristol Twinning team for letting us be a part of it. And thanks to Nick for his translation!
@MrsMcNQT@MrBoothY6 I have had this problem and just tweeted about using partners to model and talk through the learning. It works well with a higher and a lower together. We have had some really great success with this.
@MrBoothY6 We use partner a and partner b- more able paired with less able- and the more able models an example (calculation, sentence etc) in their book and talks through the process with their partner. Then we do another together, then the less able models how to do it in their book.
It’s that time of year when leaders tell year six teachers that a certain percentage HAVE to be at a certain level. I get stories about this unprofessional pressure year after year. I want to say - it’s too late! The year six teacher is not the goalie whom everyone can blame.

Thank you so much for working with the children @MayParkPri. They felt honoured to be part of this. It is a brilliant piece of work and needs to be shared far and wide. #ifracismvanishedforaday
