It’s all beginning to feel a little more normal now. The students know who I am, they wave at me across the playground and the little year 7s trot up to sheepishly say hello.
I think I know more about the students than the other members of staff! Students come to me asking for Miss Something-or-other and I have no idea who they are talking about. I am sure this will come in time and I suppose knowing the young people in my class is a higher priority than knowing the surnames of everyone in the science department.
I would like to say that the marking is slowing down – but it isn’t. I have got much faster at it though!
