HMIe, visitors and discos

Yesterday we had a moderation visit from the distict HMIe inspector. Everyone is feeling like he gave us an early Christmas present! He was happy that we had moved towards addressing our action points and the LA will now produce the follow through report. I’ve felt from the start that the whole process has been a positive one. Yes it was stressful for the whole staff as everyone tries to show how hard they work with our children. But there were really no surprises and it helped us focus on where we needed to move forward.

We also had some visitors from Norway who looked round the school and talked to us about how we teach in Scotland.

Last night was our PTA disco. It is great seeingthe children just having fun. It’s also great to see our Mums who organise Santa, DJ, games, raffles, food etc just doing so much to help everyone.
