If you know me personally, we aren’t putting it out on social media but it’s been a hell of a journey and I want to shout it from the rooftops. IVF worked (5th transfer) and fingers crossed, we have our baby due early November! ❤️

Day 57 as Headteacher…tough gig today. When you spend all your time giving to families and trying hard to keep their children from suspensions, yet they send an email to Ofsted to complain. Many would have kicked them out long time ago #thanksyouget #first100daysasHT

Looking for recommendations…has anyone hired a swimming pool for the playground? It’s something I’ve been considering due to cost of our coaches/leisure centre. I’ve had a quote but not sure if it’s reasonable or not. Anyone in Lancashire done it?

I always say to my staff that family come first and allow them time for assemblies, shows and appointments etc. I led by example and have spent the last two days in hospital with my wife. So glad I’ve got a great deputy and team I can trust to run the school without me 😊

Favourite part of my day…When you’re showing a potential candidate around and introduce her to the EYFS lead.She comes back 4 mins later and you’re sat wrapped in a blanket at the dinner table, with a 3 course meal and some dolls from the EYFS children, whilst being waited on 🥰

Ready for whatever Spring 2 throws at us (hopefully 2 appointments!) A productive half term though 💪 New suit bought ✅ Shirt ironed ready for the morning ✅ Met our latest family member for cuddles over half term ✅ Now to turn back into work mode!

Day 83 as HT…a busy but productive day. Finalised a job advert for a new 1-2-1 TA ready to start in September. Our school got awarded the School Games Gold Award and now on my clinic with @Ambition_Inst for my NPQH.

Busy day today as I’m not in tomorrow/Friday as on Lancashire’s 24hour in leadership course. Looking forward to some time to plan away from school. As usual, a worthwhile afternoon speaking with @MrsKatieSmith and offloading about the positives since taking over as Headteacher 😊

I doubt many schools still do it but it’s a tradition for us. Our annual maypole celebration and crowning of our rose queen 👸 #maypole #rosequeen #traditions

Day 77 as Headteacher…a busy one but SATs are done and we aren’t being moderated! Still got my year 6 teacher on a moderation course as it’s useful for her training. Now home, with a beer in hand and waiting for hopefully a Leeds Rhinos win! #first100daysasHT

Day 93 as HT…. Spent the morning having a headteacher update and then went home to have some time for governors and curriculum. Managed to get loads done and hopefully improve our vision and values #first100daysasHT
