I'll never forget my first Ofsted lesson observation, as an NQT, when they said I couldn't rely on this level of energy to engage and enthuse my class as it would diminish as I got older. I hope they get to watch this, 20 years later. 🤔

Ofsted: "If we don't try to break the headteacher, how do we know you're strong enough to lead the school?"

One for the Early Years continuous provision?!?

Despite my vast years of experience/classical training, can confirm that Deputy Head Girl unanimously won Yorkshire Pudding-Gate Dance Off. My head stand, figure-hugging elf suit &amp; world-class dad-dancing just wasn't enough in the end. Happy kids definitely make better learners❤️

Phone call to parents earlier: "Please can we throw paint at your child, trash their clothes and set off smoke flares?" Hope our ridiculous day of joy and original dance track makes you smile - come on England! #BringItHome🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Look at this, look at this!!! One of our little girls dreamt of having their own pink bike….we asked for a used one on social media but some kind person sent this brand new one (we don’t know who and would like to say a big thank you!) Look at the big smile on her face!!! 🥰

WHO’S SAFEGUARDING MY COLLEAGUES? Really appreciate everyone who’s got in touch with their support after my appearance on BBC Breakfast where I talked honestly about why Ofsted must change. So glad people are finally feeling able to speak up. (Thanks for the vid Nick Corston FRSA 🔥🚀)

Just for balance, there are many different ways for pupils to move around school. This is how we roll.

What happens in school when the kids go home? (Wait for it…😂🙈😂)

The reality has just dawned on me that I’m 45 &amp; only went to the top of the Death Slide because of the peer pressure of about 20 young children &amp; their parents at a random party chanting for me to do it. 🙈 *Look out for the exact moment the fear kicks in. 🤣

As the debate about movement around schools rumbles on, check out the innovative way that our SLT have reduced response times.

Now the Tories have gone, please can we get back to having more joy in schools?

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🦁❤️COME ON ENGLAND!❤️🦁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 No child should be too hungry to learn - help us raise money for the amazing @Magic_Breakfast and cheer on England in our patriotic dance song with Somatronic. #BringItHome #NoChildTooHungryToLearn

Doesn’t matter which football team you support, this will make you smile. Happy Christmas, everyone.

When staff ask you to come see what they’ve been up to with the kids….wasn’t expecting snow angels 😂😂😂

Happy Valentine’s Day from everyone at Flakefleet 😍

Belonging is everything &amp; there aren’t many better ways of creating it than singing. Still smiling that we closed curtains, got torches out &amp; finished this INSET day with a Jason Manford Assembly Banger. So privileged to be able to tell our #daretodream story &amp; spread some joy.
