Gawd! I was a grizzle today at Children + Families. My only excuse...I was provoked.
The Convenor has an unfortunate habit of opening her mouth and letting her belly rumble (excuse the inelegant prose but her lack of wisdom irritates me)
Today, she insulted a parent's deputation...snappishly, 'Quit while you're ahead: you're getting the money,'... insulted our dedicated staff by saying standards in our schools 'are poor,' dismissing years of achievement and progress, and yet again weighed into previous education convenors by saying we'd done nothing, achieved nothing and left her with nothing but problems.
She needs to get some balance...she has the torch for a short while and she needs to use it to make a difference, not keep whining about the weight of responsibility. So far, I have seen not a scintilla of evidence that she is capable of visionary policy making, leadership or even has a view of what education is for.
Visit to the podiatry clinic was an eye-opener! Did you know that the equivalent of just over 1 month of staff members' time was wasted last year as a result of missed appointments? That's a lot of money - your's and mine!
