The use of force to control or restrain pupils - new guidance and updated model policy
Posted by Pam Langmead on Mon 7th Jun 2010 7:48am
New "use of force" guidance was published by the DCSF in April - and should be used by schools until (when? if?) the Department for Education (DfE) updates the documents. The full guidance, which includes guidance on effective practice and how to record and report significant incidents, is posted on the ECA website.
Clerks' briefing sessions January 2010 - notes and evaluations
Posted by Pam Langmead on Fri 22nd Jan 2010 7:32pm
Once again, the Essex Clerks' Association and Governor Services jointly hosted clerks' briefing sessions at the beginning of the spring term - unfortunately clerks in Mid Essex who had planned to attend either of the sessions at Great Baddow were disappointed as both were cancelled because of severe weather conditions. Please accept our apologies for this - we won't let it happen in April!
