Get a grip!
The thought of the next seven weeks being totally, as opposed to just dominated by Ofsted is becoming rather unpleasant. So, last night I made a list. Jobs to do and weeks to do them in. It is just about manageable if I am very good and get on with things, so that is the way it is going to have to be. We have a head coming in on Friday to do a pre- inspection, she will be looking around at things, not watching our teaching, so the books have to be marked etc with encouraging comments. Records have to be up to date and assessment procedures in place. This is OK, we can do this.
Captain Mainwairing will not be hearing that phrase,"Don't panic." -yet...
