The Smudgelet is indignant on my behalf that school inspections exhaust people and take them away from spending relaxing time with their families.
The inspection is over.
I am exhausted.
I have so much to do tonight - packed lunches to make, meals to prepare for Friday and Saturday, the bins to put out.
What am I actually doing?
I'm flicking from page to page on the internet - not even reading, just flicking - and in a moment will crawl into bed and hope to wake early enough to do it all tomorrow.
Two lessons observed. No feedback. Think it went OK (though would have liked both lessons to go better - they would have done if the kids hadn't felt restricted by the presence of the inspectors as was evident when the inspectors left) but it's hard to tell. Tears from all staff this morning, including the Head, at the way we've pulled together. Whether we're a successful school or a failing one, we couldn't work harder or with more dedication. I wonder what they'll say. We may never know. (It isn't OFSTED so it isn't published).
Go to bed, Smudgie!
