Well I have survived the last two INSET days without dying of complete boredom! In fact some of it was quite useful I guess, information overload though. I think the SMT forget that we are not robots and cannot take in copious amounts of detail and paperwork in the space of two days!!!
The kiddies are back tomorrow and I will be there bright and early to welcome my new Year 7 form group! I think I will be more nervous than they are so will have to keep my fingers crossed for that one. Then am teaching two lessons which should be ok considering that I have planned nothing what so ever!!!! Must make a note to myself to actually do some sort of planning over the weekend and pray that the teachers planner I ordered actually arrives!!!
Oh well going to drink at least a bottle of red wine and think about getting the iron out ready for tomorrow!
Bye for now xxx

Good luck for tomorrow. I was an NQT last year so know how you're feeling. Depending on what sort of school you're in the kids will probably be really well behaved this first week so make the most of it and make sure you really bollock them if they step out of line by the tiniest amount!
Have fun!
