6 “When I delivered the INSET I was met with stony faces and sighs of ‘Oh no not another change!’” “The article we read about ‘Tidying the cupboard’ made me realise what time I waste doing admin jobs.”

7 “I’m interested to know how others have dealt with negative reactions to change.” “I’m new to data analysis, I don’t know how to analyse year group data and track children through the school.”

8 “I’m trying to introduce the renewed framework, track progress across the school, buy new resources, observe teaching…I only have half a day a fortnight!” “I’ve just taken over as subject leader. Where do I start? “
