Doesn't help much as the initial report is still published.  I worry that the promise support to actually improve the college will be withdrawn if we manage to scrape a 3 from the appeal.

I'd like to say more, but just remembered that I'm covered by the official secrets act and am writing this on my work computer while remote desktopping.  [bleep].

erm...are you serious? - are we still talking about the same college?....lets not forget the calibre of students that come through those doors....they have to be bribed with cash incentives to attend! 

Two important things:

1) Give me a shout if you fancy trying to do something, alternate employment-wise - I think that there's a few escapees and prisoners that could band together and have a go at doing something. You know, like the-one-who-keeps-saying-that.

2) Please forgive the lack of poker invitage - it was a clash with the post-OFSTED drinking session, so assumed that only the escapees would be coming, so didn't send out any further invites. Next one will probably be in three weeks, and you're most welcome - more details to follow.

3) Don't tar yourself with the same brush as anyone else - let's just say that some of the people with no teaching qualifications do a better job than the ones that do. Also, that thing about the practice lesson - I take it that was also a hint as to who it was?

4) Yes, I know that there's more than two things in this list.

5) I should probably get around to making some kind of "visible to friends only" kind of thing for this, shouldn't I? 

All in all, I think this is good for the college... perhaps a chance to make real change.

Well nothing much changes by the sound of it. I remember that panic and paper storm myself - when I was in charge of photocopying.

Hope Kaa survived!

Have you had a post-inspection karaoke night at the local?

Take a week off!!

And I can tell you....

Oh, dear :(

 Nice to catch up on where you are now. I have to say I did stay for the bread - the extra few pounds The Ghost offered me the first time I tried to escape!! Haha! (Though to be fair - Bread was a pretty good Social Secretary to us all back in the day...) Wow - is it really 2 years??

But I guess we all change and move on sometime. Things never stay the same. I hear that The Mole is the latest escapee - say "Good Luck" from me if you see him in his last days!

That's the great thing about this site - keeps everyone in touch still. Now - just have to hope I don't lose the next forfeit...couldn't match your standard! Have you ever considered a career change to [long word]

I now have a job title that's got more words in it than my name... impressive?
