Well I made it through the first half term. Just starting to feel settled with my classes, however, have changes coming again, my timetable is set to be shuffled in a week, not sure exactly what I'm picking up. I do know I'm getting an awesome group of Y10's though, bit like the top-stream group I had in NZ. So that will be cool. Might be getting a Y7 too, but not sure, may loose my 13's as they join the two small classes into one. Many things up in the air. I am however going to go for the lead teacher of physics job (I checked with the other physics guy and he doesn't want it). So just have to tweak the CV and write a cover letter for the job, feels a bit odd applying for another job all formally when I'm already there, but have to do it right.
On break for a week, which is good as it give me some time to relax, has been non-stop for ages. Went to Coventry yesterday to see Coventry Cathedral, which was bombed out in the second world war. It is quite impressive, I made a little video of it.
Haven't done a whole lot else, apart from sorting out furniture for my room and trying to find a motorbike to buy. I have brought all the gear, but haven't found a good bike for a price I can afford yet, might have to wait a month to get enough. :-( , Ah well all good things take time.
Much love to you all, take care.
Just a little something to leave you with.
it's very interesting, having different classes every half year, i think it's a brilliant idea. i am 100% support you go for the lead physics teacher position, take care... Tony
