I STILL want to be mortgage free - 2011!

I've PM'd Grateful the info because I'm a bit bothered about putting the advert on here - not quite sure why. But if anyone else thinks they can help and wants the info I'll pass it on and gladly accept any advice.

I'd be wary of putting the info on here, too. Twinklie is it basically a head of house/head of year post? How do you organise TGs?

I'll have a thunk and put something down later and pm it.

Off to interview kids at primary school about their progress in writing today...

TGs? I've been trying to figure that out for 10 minutes now...ha ha. But yeah, it's a head of year post.

Never done anything pastoral, but if you want me to read anything i am quite happy to proof read your letter or whatever. Saying that, grateful is probably more qualified with more experience. Good person to ask.

Sorry, Tutor Groups?? I don't know about qualified...but I love doing that stuff (just not for myself, 'cos then I have to do all the extra work!!).

Congrats on getting on the AQA list and good luck with the job app.

When no one at my old school drove the same journey, I listed my journey on a car share website, and someone got in touch. He was going furthern that me but used to pick me up and drop me off on the way for half the cost of my petrol.

Twinklie...don't tell me the answers here if you don't want, but I'm sure you have swatted up the ECMatters stuff - I can never remember the "things" off by heart...and have you looked at the press for new stuff, for example, have you formed a view on academies and the changes to SEN and ebac, which will have a massive impact?

gratefulforhelp_2

Right I have sent you some stuff on the job spec, but it a bit stream-of-consciousness so spelling and grammar may be less than perfect!! If you want to send me the first draft...I will scribble on it.

Thanks Grateful... going to spend the next hour or so on my letter and see how far I get. Fingers crossed I get somewhere with it. I've been naughty and putting it off.

I've been so busy at school that I've absolutely no updates to make...life is pretty dull at the minute. However, you know the probs we were having with the bank? Well they've sent us a cheque for £50 for the inconvenience.

So to do this week:
1. [STRIKE]Write and post ISA application for new ISA.[/STRIKE]
2. Close unnecessary CC's.
3. Check balance transfer for CC goes through.
4. Submit Mobile bill for cash back.
5. [STRIKE]Clean kitchen.[/STRIKE]
6. File bills.
7. [STRIKE]Make sure all planning is sorted for the week. [/STRIKE]
8.[STRIKE] Write letter for promotion. [/STRIKE]

That should keep me busy for a few days.

OK letter is done but it is a bit rubbish. I'm sure it's not that bad really....it just needs tweaking. I'd be shocked if I didn't get an interview TBH. Does that sound really cocky?
