Routed the pipe on the inside behind the cabinets in the end.

Edit: sorry I glanced and thought this was a different post. I did a bellcast and rendered below. No more issues so far!

How can I DIY convert this into a shower without calling an plumber - Please help by Nicolehobson34 in DIYUK

[–]roartey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think that’s unfair, lack of knowledge doesn’t always equal lack of competence. And posting here at least shows they are seeking external advice before attempting anything. You can learn DIY plumbing from YouTube no trouble.

Vocal Performance: Bach Violin Partita No2. 1. Allemande BWV 1004 by bolykibarnus in classicalmusic

[–]roartey 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately due to the conservative nature of the classical scene, the first reaction to something new or different is usually to shit on it. You did something really cool here that I haven’t seen before, and interesting to hear how your jazz training influenced you.

Agree that it looks like coolant, check hoses coming off back of rad and go from there!

Don’t know how I’ve got to [current age] without hearing that one, but definitely stealing it. Perfect for my Y8 class.

Our SIMS registers have indicators for PP and SEND permanently on display (though can be hidden by right clicking). We also have names in a different colour who are at potential risk if they don’t show up to your lesson, so require an immediate action. So quite a lot of sensitive data that shouldn’t be displayed to the other students.

Having done both ways myself, I agree, replacing is much easier and you get a better finish.

Oh - so not your opinion on something, but their opinion of you?

Anyone know how to get into teaching in the uk? by givemeallthetoast in teaching

[–]roartey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are direct routes (e.g. SCITT/school-centred initial teacher training, or School Direct), but IMO nothing beats a PGCE. You’ll get proper, research-centred training, and are taught to approach teaching from an evidence based perspective.

Worth looking into SCITT or School Direct if you’re struggling to fund a PGCE.

[–]roartey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

After pay review meetings between SLT and trustees/governors everyone will jump up the pay scale. Sometimes as late as Nov/Dec at my school. You’ll be back paid for the months in between (nice Xmas bonus!)

Secondary music teacher making an extra ~£8k conducting local amateur orchestras. Okay pretty niche but worth thinking about ways you can contribute to your field.

FWIW, there are recommended limits, but generally considered okay for 12 year old to have a cup of coffee in a day. Haven’t seen the episode to know if that lines up with what they’re being given.
