1 (Tape 131201)

Unknown speaker (KPNPSUNK) [1] which goes across ... according to attainment targets.
[2] Now to help you with that ... I'd like it back ... I've put the attainment targets
Liz (PS572) [3] Bloody hell!
Cathi (PS573) [4] Oh God!
None (PS575) [5] for stage one on here so it can just ... go across them.
[6] Okay?
Cathi (PS573) [laugh]
None (PS575) [7] Now, this activity though, I, I'm going to ask you report it back so that each group reports to me
Angie (PS574) [8] Well Cathi , how you gonna
None (PS575) [9] with the activity ... now then I shall
Angie (PS574) [...]
None (PS575) [10] be able to say to you ... which I'll have to say next term when I go in to do my [...] inspections, I'll have to say to the teacher ... er, one
Marion (PS571) [11] Oh we should actually have
None (PS575) [12] what
Marion (PS571) [13] our training.
None (PS575) [14] attainment targets are yo , you know what programmes of study are you addressing in this lesson?
[15] And it's gotta be specific.
[16] And two, I will say, how can you, with activity, can you tell me what a level two child should be doing?
[17] Or ... what's the difference in this activity for a level two or a level three child?
[18] Okay?
[19] Now that's not quite so easy.
[20] It's damn difficult.
[21] Well, to help you with that ... to give you an idea, first I'll the ta the attainment on this one, what to look for.
[22] And this is how
Marion (PS571) [...] [...]
None (PS575) [23] parts of these statements have been translated.
[24] Don't go into the, this morning when she was doing activity ... she said ah, she said I I've got them to spot ten similarities, ten differences, great!
[25] Okay.
[26] But it's not good teaching.
[27] And I said, fine.
[28] I said, so how many of those would grade three, level three child have to get to be at a level three?
[29] And how many of those would a level two child have to get?
[30] And how many would the level one child have to get?
[31] Then you can make it into an easier idea of what I mean.
[32] But, when you're doing that ... you make assessment at the end of it to say what level you have, you've got to target specifically at certain things.
[33] It means a bit of cheating [...] , will give you some idea of how they, at level one, on a picture a child, you'd expect a child to pick out ... two things about buildings.
[34] Okay?
[35] Or if you were doing water ... they could pick out two of the four things that you wanted about water.
[36] So when you're doing this ... bear that in mind.
[37] Okay?
[38] I'll try and do a little bit more here ... fine, but it's really thinking
Unknown speaker (KPNPSUNK) [39] Improvisation is the word.
None (PS575) [40] of [...]
Marion (PS571) [41] I know the [...] .
None (PS575) [42] Okay? [break in recording]
Group of unknown speakers (KPNPSUGP) [...] [classroom chatter]
None (PS575) [43] I'm sorry, I've forgot a little aid for you.
[44] Erm, I have ... one job here ... two pages on the [...] area ... and if you look at it it gives you a progression from ... sort of pre-school life, nursery activity, right through to ... what will ... what will be level ten.
Marion (PS571) [45] I still feel Lyndsey can deal with that one.
None (PS575) [46] Right?
[47] So I'll leave you with
Marion (PS571) [...]
None (PS575) [48] an example
Angie (PS574) [49] Mm.
None (PS575) [50] which gives you some suggestions of what [...] .

Marion (PS571) [242] How many was thinking of going on?
Rachel (PS576) [243] Ninety five percent.
Marion (PS571) [244] Oh.
[245] Yeah.
Rachel (PS576) [246] But erm ... like Vicky who's got ... in her English folder ... this is Vicky, you know Vicky ... she's got ... in her literature she's got nine A's and one B.
[247] And in her other, I don't know what she's got, ten A's probably.
[248] And ... she's not going to.
[249] She wants to be a nurse.
Marion (PS571) [250] Oh does she?
Rachel (PS576) [251] And er ... like she said, aren't you Vicky?
[252] And she goes no Miss.
[253] Erm, you can't be a nurse till you're eighteen.
Marion (PS571) [254] No.
[255] No, you can't go in as a stu er, student.
Rachel (PS576) [256] So like ... you know, she's gonna stay on ... do A levels ... and then go into it.
Marion (PS571) [257] Mm mm.
Rachel (PS576) [258] Because ... she might as well have some A levels just in case or whatever.
[259] But erm ... you know, ah ... you know, she's, you know ... I can understand that actually, she's being quite sensible about it, she said, there's nothing else I wanna do ... and I might as well do something I enjoy.
[260] You know, you've only got one life haven't you, when you comes down to it?
Marion (PS571) [261] Well if that's what she wants to do, that's what she wants to do innit?
Rachel (PS576) [262] Mm.
[263] Like, her Dad said to her, why don't you be a doctor?
[264] And she ju , but she don't want to.
[265] You know, she wants to be in a hospital
Marion (PS571) [266] Yeah.
Rachel (PS576) [267] like, she don't want to end up in general practice.
Marion (PS571) [268] Well sh , doesn't necessarily have to end up in general practice does she?
Rachel (PS576) [269] No, but
Marion (PS571) [270] Well I mean for the first year she won't be in ... if she goes in as a student she'll be in college.
Rachel (PS576) [271] I know, but ... it won't take as long for her to get ... there ... [laughing] as it will [] if she becomes a doctor.
Marion (PS571) [272] Oh no.
[273] Three years int it, a student?
Rachel (PS576) [274] Mm.
Marion (PS571) [275] But then you get on-hand experience from it.
[276] ... Hands on I should say, not on-hand.
Rachel (PS576) [277] But er
Marion (PS571) [278] Learning how to clean pot er er, bed pans and ... make beds and ... things like that.
Rachel (PS576) [279] Clearing up sick.
Marion (PS571) [280] Mhm.
Rachel (PS576) [281] That's her favourite job isn't it?
Marion (PS571) [282] Mm mm.
Rachel (PS576) [283] You know, I thought of being that once but ... I wouldn't mind it in the wards, but I wouldn't wanna be in the operating theatre.
[284] ... I don't know why.
[285] See, blood don't put me off or anything, but
Marion (PS571) [286] You don't have to go into the theatre for so long I think.
Rachel (PS576) [287] Mm mm.
Marion (PS571) [288] But then you can sa , you can specialize you see.
[289] I mean, some nurses go into the theatre all the time once they've qualified, so
Rachel (PS576) [290] Yeah.
Marion (PS571) [291] I think that they'll have to go in ... you'll have to go into each area. [clears throat]
Rachel (PS576) [292] But like ... I mean, I don't mind the blood or whatever, and if they were doing little things ... I [laughing] could handle it [] ... but like, like on that op op , operation that woman was having the other day ... and they cut her open and they just pulled.
Marion (PS571) [293] Well they do.
Rachel (PS576) [294] And that,tha , that's the thing that makes me red, it's not the cutting ... it's when they just pull it apart ... and it like
Marion (PS571) [295] Well who's gonna know?
Rachel (PS576) [296] rips.
[297] Urgh!
[298] Urgh!
[299] They could have cut it.
Marion (PS571) [300] Well they do cut it.
Rachel (PS576) [301] No they cut the skin and then they just pulled it apart.
Marion (PS571) [302] Yeah, because it's not th , not like that underneath.
[303] They, they didn't pull it apart they, they cut down ... if they cut down with a knife then they could cut into something couldn't they?
Rachel (PS576) [304] Ooh! oop!
Marion (PS571) [305] It could be dangerous.
[306] Say you, you open up the top and then the others parts.
[307] ... The lining. [laugh]
Rachel (PS576) [308] Urgh!
[309] Urgh!
[310] Yeah but what they ripped was all fat!
[311] All her
Marion (PS571) [312] Well
Rachel (PS576) [313] fat!
[314] Ooh ooh!
Marion (PS571) [315] Yeah, but you see you've got the, you've got all the, the other things ins , down, down it, underneath, and I mean if you started going in with a knife and you started cutting down, I mean you could sa , cut an artery or ... anything couldn't you?
[316] Which could be a bit nasty.
[317] You know.
[318] ... Hello pussycat!
[319] [singing] Buy a little bag for me.
[320] A chick a chick a chick a chicken [...] [] .
