@VioletAnnie1970 @tes Absolutely this! My attainment is instantly capped when I openly welcome children with complex SEN who, no matter how excellent our provision is, will not meet those national benchmarks.

[Mrs Howard @MrsHoward100]

@NewHeadteacher It couldn’t have been announced before we set our budget! 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️

[Mrs Howard @MrsHoward100]

@NewHeadteacher Exactly this! So tired yet been awake at 5am each day and up by 6am. I always allow the first few days to clear my emails and write a long to do list for September - helps to clear my mind!

@kateowbridge Our motto, “it takes 7 years!”

[Mrs Howard @MrsHoward100]

@RogersHistory I think so, if they get nominated. I suppose the difficulty for a HT would be how to choose who to nominate. There are some Sencos on this years list.

[Mrs Howard @MrsHoward100]

@kateowbridge We haven’t been able to tell our staff this year yet either. Last year we could. It’s all dependent on staffing circumstances each year. Your report system sounds great - I’m not quite so brave!

[Mrs Howard @MrsHoward100]

@kateowbridge That is exactly who I picture when I read the books too!

[Mrs Howard @MrsHoward100]

@profprofMFL Yes, the DfE advice is such but teachers aren’t obliged to say. However, your HT isn’t responsible for the mess education is in so why wouldn’t you tell them to allow them to plan as much as possible for the children on these days 🤷‍♀️

@MrsWhiteLancs I have such a productive day too when I am in my ‘own clothes!’

@MrAdams333 We are looking forward to seeing you @CrossleyFields today!

[Mrs Howard @MrsHoward100]

@CFS_MrF @CrossleyFields Couldn’t agree more, SATs are the tiniest part of who you are! Have a great test free day today!

[Mrs Howard @MrsHoward100]

@6SB_CF @CrossleyFields They look amazing 6SB, well done!

[Mrs Howard @MrsHoward100]

4JB @CrossleyFields created some amazing mandala patterns using chalks and natural materials as part of our RE work today.

@MrAdams333 @CrossleyFields what a fantastic way to end the term 🥰

[William Adams @MrAdams333]

Such a lovely way to end the term in 2WA @CrossleyFields by sharing anonymous positive messages with each other! Words are so powerful and the children felt so proud reading what others in the class thought about them! #futurebehaviour #PositiveVibes #positivity #edutwitter

Fantastic Roman mask and sword making today by our key worker children and staff @CrossleyFields....here's two of them modeling them brilliantly!

[Mrs Howard @MrsHoward100]
