A nice gentle slide into Christmas - if only

The kids are getting tired, the staff are getting tired and therefore it is important to make sure that the lessons are well planned as possible. So in the last two weeks we Yr 12 and Yr13 parents evening, Yr9 options evening and Yr9 reports. Talking for about three hours cotinuosly about options has already killed the throats of some staff and no doubt parents evening will have a similar effect. It is fair enough to have a parents evening in the run up to the January exams but the options proecess need to be complete by July and maybe could have waited.
