I can not believe that the last time I updated this blog was over 6 months ago.... I am really sorry that this slipped by the wayside.
We have a new ICT technician called David, who is with both schools as an apprentice. He is doing a fantastic job, and he could certainly teach me a few things about ICT already - even though HE is the apprentice. He has given me a stern telling off though, and I have assured him that from now on I will be updating the BLOG as regularly as I can. I'll also make sure that there is a reminder on the newsletters for each school.
We all try very hard with communication, but sometimes, the teaching (quite rightly!) gets in the way. I was really pleased to see parents attend Dawn Funge's and Sara White's "Parent Forum" meetings recently. Ideas were shared about how to improve things at Oakfield and Temple Hill. We certainly take your ideas on board, so please keep sharing!
One item which comes up time and time again is HOMEWORK... I would love to know parents' views on homework. Do we offer enough? Would you like it online? Do you like the commercial books, or would you prefer teachers to be setting their own? Homework will be one of the topics we will be asking your opinion on during our consultation days in January.
That's it for today.
