Went into school yesterday and managed to avoid talking to any kids. I was a bit disappointed by some of the results, some of the kids I expected to get A*s only got As, but the results for my class were pretty good (3A*s and 7 As) with only one kid getting a D and then there was the pregnant girl who never kept any notes who managed to get an E. As a department the results were OK but down on last year, even though the number of entries was up, and there were far too many Es (21 out of 76). In some ways this is better than Ds but we need to think long and hard about this and what we can do to make sure that results improve next year.
A week of the holidays left but I still seem to have loads to do. All the stuff I was going to do for my uni project hasn't happened and I've got to start thinking about the lessons I'm going to teach when I go back.

The results don't seem too bad. What subject are you? My school is smaller; there were only 27 in year 11 this year and we had 21 Grade C or higher (Maths) I was disappointed as last years results were the best ever, but I suppose they can't always be the best ever.
I am refusing to do any work this week.
