I was wondering why you had been in hiding in the last few days, Grip.

Did your Head Teacher tell you do that?


Seriously, very well done to you and your colleagues!
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Actually,  this was a couple of weeks ago but we're only allowed to release the results when they've been ratified  ;)

Thanks to all for your kind words  :)
Buy plenty of Matron's sculpts now!

If he keeps using the chainsaw, the value of his work will soon go up.

As we all know, 'outstanding' this year will mean 'ok' next year, and 'total rubbish, sack everyone and demolish the school' in three years time. OFMGPIE - the Office for moving Goal Posts in Education. Also, all the backslapping means the poor bastards down the road are now put under totally unnecessary undue pressure to do even better or be lambasted in the media for doing exactly the same job. OFSTED! Shooting's too bloody good for them.

On unrelated matters. I bought some duff dice today.

Instead of numbers they had "Oustanding", "Good", "Good", "Requires improvement", "Requires Improvement", "Inadequate".

Think they used to belong to someone in the school inspection line.
