Hi All

how is your week going to plan out?  I've got a busy one at work ahead as it's start of term.  I'm reducing my calories in an effort to lose again.  Doing well so far.

Looks like we've got a sunny week ahead, so I hope you all enjoy it.

What do you teach?  What ages?

I work in the offices in a school - HR & Payroll.

I'm a bit of a mixture!! Most of my teaching career was teaching Psychology and Sociology A Level and Law GCSE. And in my last mainstream school, I was Work Experience and Careers Co-ordinator.

Then I got fed up with all the initiatives! And working every weekend, every evening and most of my holidays! So I changed careers! And I have just retired after 7 years as a class teacher of MLD and SLD teenagers! The MLD were the sort who were borderline able to go to a mainstream comp and so added severe behaviour problems to their overall learning disability (including autism) - so challenging! But the last two years I had SLD students - several Downs and other less known syndromes.

A fantastic 7 years!!! Kate
