Anyone heard about one of the local primary schools having a budgetary shortfall and having to lose some teaching assistants? Not sure if appropriate or fair to mention school by name but some may know which one I am talking about. Perhaps I should approach the Head directly!


On reflection I feel that my post may have been inappropriate. I am feeling guilty and a little irresponsible so I have asked The Administrator to lock this thread so that it can quietly be put to rest.

Actually your right - I dont need to know that much. If need be I'll do my own investigating, keeping the findings to myself of course.

At the end of the day, don't all the schools face the same budgetary restrictions or cuts?? So if there is a budget problem facing one school, surely other schools in the area are?


Another thought - the salary of one TA is probably the same as the yearly tuition at a private school. Think what would happen if all the people who paid to send their kid to a private school put their money into the local schools instead.

off the top of my head, some of the reasons why different schools would have different budget issues


premises (different states of repair)

mix of children (if one school "succeeds" in attracting better students then another school will have a potentially more volatile mix - temperament, aptitude - of students)

salary levels

    • Hi does anyone have a Hotwheels track (ideally which packs away neatly like the fuel can or transporter one) they've been itching to get rid of please? Needed urgently for an emergency birthday present!    Thanks! 
    • Glad to hear that the cops are taking crash for cash seriously.  The situation I am aware of the driver called the police, reported it separately as dangerous motorcycling, avoided all calls from 'ambulance chasers' and subsequently got a letter from the police saying it was an unregistered rider/uninsured rider.  It was reluctantly reported to their insurers who actually did not put up the premium which was a nice surprise. So as stressful as it may be just hold firm, deny everything, take down details and report to the police.
    • Hi I am looking to join some local businesses networking events and wondering if anyone can recommend any. I know there used to be one (Cooking with Scissors) but that’s not running any more. Thanks.
    • Eats Dulwich has just reviewed Arapina, including its hot chocolate!  I assume they read the original first and  very long post on this thread before almost all of it was removed. Interesting to have another opinion!
