Worst job - packing dogs chews best job - working in blackpool in summer

Our senco is a class teacher also and 2 years ago kirk was in her class and she was doing a report has he was being assessed off LEA and all she said was he was bright clever and all this stuff which i was shocked , he could'nt read write spell nothing when i questioned her about him getting lost in school her response was he'd been in toilets messing about for 3 months he got lost round school but she said nope he had'nt and when asked about the report she said well he can spell "I " and "IT" since leaving her class he can read write and spell abit he's nearly 11 and i feel she let him down big time , I'm all for positive feedback but also need to be truthful when dealing with children with special needs , he starts secondary soon and i'm scared for him as for reasons said he got no statement but a note in lieu

<'> <'> oh rach sorry no advice just wanted to say i'm here

great stuff well done

hello and welcome

hello and welcome dolly and Shnoing2

Happy mothers day all kurtis made me one this year too but kept saying ssshhh its a secret awwwww even when opened it he said but its a secret

Kurtis did'nt talk till he was nearly 4 and pointed to everything his pead told us to get 2 things out and then he could try and ask for stuff like if he pointed to the fridge for yoghet we got milk out as well as yoghets and asked him which one , he still pointed but started talking most is echolia but were getting there

hello and welcome karen

Aww thats nice its great when teachers and TA's want whats best for our children too

awww its sweet is'nt it kurtis has made me one too but opened book bag saw some thing and asked jamie to remove it till sunday can't wait to see it , it makes your heart melt when they do one

DD1 my friend picked , DS1 was named after a teacher who i had a crush on DS2 was named after lewis collins (not sure if anyone remembers him) DD2 was named from my mum DS3 was suppose to be called levi james but my mum said she'd never speak to me again if i called him that so called him kirk james and DS4 was called kurtis to match kirk so all kids names match louise and lewis jamie and jade and kirk and kurtis so if i ever had another it would have to be twins with same ish names

yea mark and lads watched it could hear them screaming sorry hev there blackburn fans

I like walking to but only just got into it so not a pro did 2 hours of walking other day again its to get fit for summer have lost 7 stone 5 lbs with dieting and walking not good enough yet to do a long walk but i'm sure there's groups who do rambling as well good luck , its lovely on early spring mornings is'nt it

Ok after re-reading the post i'll give you my input My teenage lad in secondary mainstream school with some support before xmas was stripped in PE and the lads took the mickey out of him we went into school demanding to sort it out things went quiet and stayed like that lewis took his PE kit and things were ok (so we thought) on wednesday got a call lewis had been avoiding PE because he was scared it would happen again so instead he went from libary to different classes for 2 months , lieing to teachers anyway bottom line was because lewis did'nt want to look like he was a grass did'nt want to tell the teachers who they were avoided the class !!! and now its out in open they've put support in PE too now IF he'd had a male support to talk to i'm 100% sure he would of done (is supports are female bar PE now) and he's happy with the male support , long story but i'm sure that if you spoke to the lad in question he very well might open up If i'm talking rubbish just ignore me

david i'm same wish my kids TA's were like you but need to see proper and read it again will do when i wake up
