Covid-19 / Days Off

Wet, Windy and Wonderful

Posted on May 23, 2020 by denhamkite • Leave a comment

A day of next to no work. A day to have a walk, watch an old film. A day to recuperate. But for the past couple of months, well covid19, we’d have been en-route to St. Ives today and by now, there, pitched and overlooking the bay. Instead, here we are still in Leicester having … Continue reading →

School’s Out – Day 35

Posted on May 22, 2020 by denhamkite • Leave a comment

It is 22:00 at night and officially, the start of the half-term break. Usually at this point many in the teaching profession would be either asleep; on their way somewhere for a short holiday; or relaxing with family (or alone), relaxing. This start of the half-term break is different. It is not so relaxing (whilst … Continue reading →

School’s Out – Day 34

Posted on May 21, 2020 by denhamkite • Leave a comment

Some days are great and others not so much. Today started brilliantly. Positive, together, purposeful and altogether good! Onto the next call – negative, going round in circles, problem focussed and totally a waste of time. It’s a good job I can step back and take stock of those with whom I’m associated and can … Continue reading →

School’s Out – Day 33

Posted on May 20, 2020 by denhamkite • Leave a comment

An extremely hot day and an extremely busy one. Water being used to cool down and despite that for some, the great outdoors was not accessible. That may be due to lockdown or it may be due to being busy, indoors doing various bits of work. Sometimes when we enter a period of crisis, pandemic … Continue reading →

School’s Out – Day 32

It was not supposed to be a busy day, but it was. One meeting of no more than two hours, chaired by myself and all planned. The rest of the day, supporting, helping planning and catching up. These things never quite happen like you hope. That said, it wasn’t a bad day. Going through the … Continue reading →

School’s Out – Day 31

Monday back at school, or not the case may be. Some days are certainly harder than others and can be quite frustrating, remote meeting after remote meeting whilst neglecting the home learning needs of your own – and we are all in the profession, sitting about doing nothing on an extended holiday, according to some … Continue reading →

Stay Alert- Some Don’t Understand 2m

Posted on May 16, 2020 by denhamkite • 1 Comment

It is the weekend and the sun has been out some of the time. As we consider the various ways of welcoming children back at school – because social distancing in primaries is not so simple – it is hugely annoying that several pairs of people on a mid-day walk in lots of space can’t … Continue reading →
