Teachers get it handy!

Inspection in a few weeks 

Do you still get a few weeks notice of inspections?

Yeah the long running joke of the education system

Handy for catching up on a few years worth of lesson plans and schemes of work that you haven't done...

At least they're being done (eventually)

Is this not just a cut and paste job anyway? 

  Just in your school

Not ALL teachers are off for the whole week next week.

Quite correct.
Some of us finish Thursday with a twilight Inset and are then off for 10 days.

You won't go no answers for while as everyone is off work hi.


On serious side, I would think so but I do primary so I'm not sure.

Depends on how you go about it.

PGCE you'll have a mathematics related degree.

Straight in to St Mary's, Saint Joseph's, Stranmillas, I understand it's specialised for secondary

A few minutes' work on learning how to use apostrophes wouldn't go amiss either.
