@MattDoble89 We have seen about the same increase as you overall. Yes, we were using 2023

[Mr Downs @mathewdowns]

@MattDoble89 Thanks - going to have to work out why. Can only imagine lots of students across country didn’t do as well due to to attendance etc.

[Mr Downs @mathewdowns]

@LeanTeach @BS_headteacher @debbs_198 @kateannball @AvothMark Thank you…. Great to see it all so clearly.

[Mr Downs @mathewdowns]

@Strickomaster I actually think it was ‘marginally’ better but a few changes over Covid time never reverted and think it’s worse than it was!

[Mr Downs @mathewdowns]

@ajjolley We are in position where new contract from last September had a provision in it for this increase but apparently ‘not enough’ 😔

[Highcliffe School @HighcliffeSch]

The HISP Multi Academy Trust INSET Day has begun at Highcliffe! We are currently enjoying an amazing keynote from Bennie Kara, whilst 64 Science Technicians are registered and ready to go for the SLP Technician Conference.

@Calmestflow @ChrisBeeden @williamesp @ArborEdu @Bromcom Who should he ask? Bromcom or Arbor?

[Mr Downs @mathewdowns]

@caroline8779 Massive well done!

[Mr Downs @mathewdowns]

@educationgovuk So no one doing any work for the next month then? I’m actually pleased as means won’t get any sudden announcements over Christmas!!

[Mr Downs @mathewdowns]

@Headteacherchat We do - but then think it’s also as I started doing it. My two love it and walk about a secondary school like they own it! Students love them being there too!

[Mr Downs @mathewdowns]

@sunnyfieldsmrr @Headteacherchat We used whiteboards too but told lead inspector we were all in the room and used names so she was aware all were involved.

[Mr Downs @mathewdowns]

@MrsSpalding Everyday that I am most senior in I walk out thinking ‘it’s still standing’ 😂

[Mr Downs @mathewdowns]

@caroline8779 @ASCL_UK @JackWorthNFER Absolutely!!

[Mr Downs @mathewdowns]

@blackberrychris Used to love the week or so I would take now as just allowed a reset after the madness of the months before!
