A_a no need to stop the clock on holidays. Cannae beat tattie howking.
Going home...stop the clock!!
Open evening tonight, for prospective students, so I'm here until gone 9 tonight. Same next Tuesday, too. Just cruel on weeks 8 and 9 of this half term.
I had parents eve last week. Makes fridays a killer. This week I am supervising the year 7 disco tomorrow but I volunteered for that!
So as a rule(s)
Ignore any task requested by email (I ignore any email that just says FYI)
Focus on marking & lessons.
If someone asks for a task to do done twice only then do it.
You can never fully prepare a lesson so know when to stop.
Remember the good lessons, forget the bad.
A teacher said to me today always mark your books even if it means not planning your lessons as they can track unmarked books...like I said process over outcomes...
Don't kids mark each others books these days? Every day we had to swap jotters and mark them as the teacher read out the answers.
Theres a bit more to marking than ticking or crossing.
Gold stars?

To the question about contracted hours... we have something called "Directed Time" it basically means teaching time, duties, meetings, PPA, leadership/management time etc... Our directed time is 1,265 hours per year. That time doesn't include things like marking.

"Must try harder."
Do more and do it better
Damn things have changed since I was at school.

This wasn;t a school, but in a previous job I got hacked off with some really inefficient processes we did, I worked out how to simplify it all and speed it up, my boss said "we need to work harder, not smarter" 😆

No canes or smacking if you failed the weekly test. No walking into the showers or naked swimming. No more inedible food or izal medicated bog roll. How did we survive in the old days!!!
