WE HAVE HAD THE DREADED CALL TODAY AND OFSTED ARE COMING THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. I STILL HAVE TO DO PPA COVER AND HOPE THEY WONT INSPECT. I FEEL THIS IS A BIG RESPONSIBILITY. I HAVE ONLY DONE PPA TWICE BEFORE IN THESE CLASSES AS I ONLY STARTED COVERING IT THIS TERM AND AM STILL FAIRLY NEW TO SCHOOL HAS ANYBODY ELSE DONE THIS AND WERE THEY OBSERVED AT ALL. SORRY ABOUT ALL IN CAPITALS THINK ITS STRESS HAHA

Thats so unfair.. out teachers didnt have PPA that week.. they taught their class like that should be, HT said it wasnt fair, which i agree with. Hopefully they wont inspect in the class u are in and really they should be informed that the teacher isnt present. Hope it all goes well hun.

A few teachers at ours in July skipped PPA those days. Another TA and myself DID lead an RE lesson over 2 classes but were not observed. Good luck Basgirl

Imagine my face today when the ofsted inspectors said they would be visiting PPA i spent two hours dreading them coming and nothing!!!!!!!!!! o my god how could they do that

Least u didnt get observed tho!! I know u dreaded them coming hun.

Must have been awful, but like smilez said at least they didn't come. Did you have a long bath and glass of wine last night?

That's horrible!!! Hope you are now relaxed and that your school gets a good report!
