Ruth

@georgiagould.bsky.social thank you for recognising the work of Governors - a very welcome email!

Unbelievable! Hope you’re ok

That’s just ridiculous

Really helpful @ruthswailes.bsky.social but also extremely worrying and very disappointing

Definitely part of the role of the Governing Body - especially the CoG’s ability to listen and support

Morning
Are there any Chair of Governors on here?
I’m beginning to feel under pressure - as a ‘volunteer’ and wondered how others are faring?

And being ‘school ready’ 🫩

Share it with the Finance committee of the GB and the CoG too

We do….

Chat with school council (they prepared questions)
Take an Assembly
Taught a lesson
Data task
Written task prioritising 6 issues (including a safeguarding one)
Formal interview

I always think cues are missed at the early stage and a quick hug or interaction to reassure a small child helps them so much - any parent needs to be in tune with their child - not too much to ask

@talkforteaching.bsky.social - checking in to see if all well with you?

I have a pile of sticks, on
my driveway, collected by every grandchild, over time. All very precious to the owner

Totally agree with you and has been my mantra for years

Still awful…. Fortunately I’m involved with a school that promotes music - in any form

No …. Why would you?!

Oh that’s so lovely - Happy Birthday Audrey 🥰

Wow - great job for you
Nathan - go for it!!!

Same here 🤶🏻

Writing for a purpose - best thing!

As a CoG I find this really sad. Would it be worth talking to your LA SIP - if you have one?

This book has been in our house, and read at Christmas, for the past 37 years 🥰

Wonderful 🥰

Wonderful ideas - forwarded to our Nursery and Reception teachers
Thank you Juliet

Morning
Anyone on here have experience using Makaton or BSL with a bi- lingual child?

🤦🏻‍♀️

Morning Paul
Cycling to choir 🥶
Playing with 2 of the my grandchildren later …
Have a good day!

Congratulations- it’s wonderful being a Grandma - 2 more added to our little gang, this month too!

Definitely not - it’s fascinating observing their uniqueness
