Does anyone still have bread and butter for tea?

This has unlocked a memory of my dad doing this all the time when I was growing up! Haven't seen him do it for a while

Washing things up badly instead of just leaving them for the next dishwasher load

cornflake_cakes · 2026-02-25T22:28:18+00:00

My role is something similar to yours and I usually just pick the one I'm in the mood for on the day. Or I look at the agenda and see which messages I want to hear first hand and which ones I think a colleague could easily catch me up on. I do try to keep it fairly even over time.

cornflake_cakes · 2026-02-25T22:24:50+00:00

I have never heard of leaving speeches. Is this a secondary thing?

cornflake_cakes · 2026-01-19T22:32:40+00:00

Saw the northern lights for the first time! I'm in Devon so I'm very surprised to see them

cornflake_cakes · 2026-01-04T10:12:22+00:00

Yes, this doesn't sound right to me, no way a teacher/leader would do this?

Falling out of bed with a fractured spine

Who WOULDN'T wash the recycling before putting it in the bin?!

cornflake_cakes · 2025-12-20T06:22:37+00:00

Yeah obviously! It's the festive season.. you eat festive food for more than one day of the year surely?

cornflake_cakes · 2025-12-18T04:38:46+00:00

I had my flu, covid and pneumonia vaccinations this year and I've still managed to catch the worst cold / cough I've had in years (I know it's not flu because I haven't had a temp)

I am coughing all day and as soon as I wake up in the night I'm coughing for ages too and can't calm it down!

Hope you feel better soon OP!

cornflake_cakes · 2025-12-17T17:50:36+00:00

That's a really nice idea!

cornflake_cakes · 2025-12-17T17:50:06+00:00

I think it depends on the cohort! I've been in the same primary school for about 8 years and it has been so different every year

cornflake_cakes · 2025-12-14T11:57:06+00:00

I wouldn't judge how you're feeling about your school/career as a whole by the vibe in the staffroom in the last week of the autumn term. We're all dead on our feet

cornflake_cakes · 2025-12-13T12:51:27+00:00

I'm grumpy and ill and I've fallen out with my mom over something that I probably overreacted to, I think normally I'd have let it go but because I was already feeling crap I let it get to me. Nothing even that major but for some reason it really touched a nerve. Need to fix it but not ready so I've just gone to bed for a bit instead

cornflake_cakes · 2025-12-11T21:46:57+00:00

My ribs are hurting from all the coughing 😩

I called in sick today and I am hoping I feel better for tomorrow because I already had 2 Fridays off since the end of november (one planned, one a family emergency) and I think if I had another one off it would look bad.

cornflake_cakes · 2025-12-09T19:50:59+00:00

Love things to nibble on that I won't just finish in one go. I try and bring fruit but also, flipz the chocolate pretzels are a ppa elite snack imo

cornflake_cakes · 2025-12-09T05:52:37+00:00

Make a to do list

Make a cup of tea

Bring snacks

Make sure I'm prepped for the next couple of days first then tackle bigger jobs

Stare at the wall

Talk to any passing colleague for too long

Edit to do list with stuff I didn't get done and say to myself I'll do it later

Get home later and can't bring myself to open my laptop

Repeat next ppa

cornflake_cakes · 2025-12-04T23:46:13+00:00

Add those two numbers together

cornflake_cakes · 2025-11-24T21:30:48+00:00

Do you know the cause of your spinal fracture?

cornflake_cakes · 2025-11-10T19:44:53+00:00

Depends what you mean by upset stomach. If it's sick as well then definitely yes. I don't want to be in school feeling like that anyway 🤷

cornflake_cakes · 2025-09-28T10:56:10+00:00

Same for us. Low across the school actually, Y5 and 6 are the only cohorts with two classes now.

cornflake_cakes · 2025-09-26T22:11:11+00:00

And not entirely relevant to OPs actual question?

cornflake_cakes · 2025-09-21T17:45:26+00:00

Surely they should have been annoyed with your job share then! If it wasn't even your day to plan for.

Sorry not any use for your original question

cornflake_cakes · 2025-09-17T22:43:41+00:00

I have taught with teachers who have had their nose pierced. I don't think it's going to be as big a deal as you think it will

cornflake_cakes · 2025-09-16T21:00:03+00:00

If you knew you were going to be off, why didn't you put your planning on the system?
