@OhLottie A local school to me got the call on Monday . They asked for it to be deferred and were granted it!

@DeputyGrocott I’ve heard so many people this time refer to this holiday as half term!!! A large number of teachers, too. Never ever heard so many do this in previous years

@bellowheaduk London… and on my birthday, too!!

@atensnut Mass instead of maths… especially from a maths teacher

@primaryteachew Yep! Stocking filler for my husband last year! It’s hilarious.

@greeborunner My kid’s school don’t do study leave. Exam finished and straight into lessons.

[Judith Sitford @JudithSitford]

@SoVeryBritish I leave a little bit. Not that much. This is out of habit. I grew up in Kent in an extremely hard water area the last bit of tea always had limescale in the bottom of it. Not very nice to drink

@emreadsthebooks There’s no way my mum would have been able to work whilst on chemo. She was practically climbing the stairs on all fours after several rounds

@DeputyGrocott Packing my house for moving

@adamboxer1 @SciInTheMaking Yes, the two schools I have worked in have a reprographics facility. (Secondary and private) I don’t think many primary schools have them though… unless there’s an arrangement with the school office.

[Judith Sitford @JudithSitford]

@DeputyGrocott Here here! But, some schools have started calling each half term Term. Makes no sense.

Very difficult episode of call the midwife tonight. All about pancreatic cancer. This is what my mum died of almost two years ago. She passed away as we watched the very same programme.

@rlrossi64 I’m 43 and wish I could still tell my mum I’m home.

@BGatesIsaPyscho They were melted down for metal during the war.

@rachelkitch That’s great! I know exactly where you are coming from. Suffering after losing my mum and every house hold chore has just been too much. Until last week…. Step by step. You can do it.

@Headteacherchat Parent: “I’m sorry, I can’t take a call then, I’m a professional”

[Judith Sitford @JudithSitford]

@nkh12349 Yes. Especially after so many years. I friended her at secondary school when bullies got to her. Now she’s cut off contact. No idea why. Also ignored by someone I was friends with from the very start of school. No idea why. May be it’s me.

@Ka81 @Josiejo777 Thank you for addressing music here. I remember my colleague being really surprised that my Masters music degree was quite academic!

@poppygibsonuk No. On twelfth night as per tradition
