My memoir is now available in Hardback direct from silverwoodbooks.co.uk. If you are a subscriber you can order it using the discount code I emailed to you.
I have finally heard from the TPS about my ill health retirement pension. The official date is the 11th of July, and my pension will be available from that date. I am pleased that I started the process in May. It has taken that long to organise.
Today I receive a letter from the Head teacher of Carisbrooke. She writes:
Dear Lin
Oh how we have missed you. The work that you do is often hidden. The real impact is only revealed by reflection. How many of your colleagues have said: "I used to dread that lesson with Fred and Frieda but look at the work that they are doing now". Or, "That Year 10 set used to be really hard work but after lin talked me through some techniques it made such a difference"
What you have done in the school has really improved the working day for many of your colleagues and truly turned round the life chances for many students whose prospects before they met you were, at best, awful.
It still feels strange that I am not returning. I am hoping to go in for the last day of term (if I'm not in hospital) so that I can say a proper goodbye and bring closure to so many years at the High School.
