PUPILS at Watermoor Primary School in Cirencester are not progressing as much as they should because teachers are setting them work that is too easy, according to the findings of a recent Ofsted inspection.
Following its previous inspection, the school was given a good rating however, in light of its most recent Ofsted visit, the school has dropped a ranking and now is in need of improvement.
The teaching at Watermoor received the most criticism with inspectors saying that "although improving rapidly, teaching is not yet good enough to ensure that pupils in all classes make good progress."
Inspectors also agreed that in a number of lessons the teachers had not clearly set out what the pupils were expected to do and learn.
The Ofsted report stated that "when his happens pupils do not gain the maximum benefit from their work".
It was also noted that the presentation of pupils' work is "not always of the highest quality".
In a letter addressed to parents, head teacher Jo Pearce said that the school was already working on these issues before the inspection.
"Plans were already in place to accelerate our pupils' progress and address the areas the inspector identified because we are committed to helping all pupils achieve their full potential," she said.
"The underlying message throughout the inspection was that there was a lot of good practice in place, but that we need to give the initiatives time to have an effect on standards."
The school, which is smaller than the average-sized primary with just 102 pupils, was praised by Ofsted for the good conduct of its children.
"Pupils' behaviour in lessons and around the school is consistently good. Pupils have a great desire to learn and this contributes greatly to their improving achievement," the report read.
The inspector Michael Bartleman, who sat in on eight lessons on December 11 and 12, commended the "strong leadership" of the head teacher and that her efforts had "improved the quality of teaching and pupils' attainment".
He said: "She has managed the pace of change effectively and created a harmonious community, where morale is high."
The school has been told that it will not receive any additional monitoring from Ofsted over the next two years.
Mrs Pearce said: "Please be reassured, we will continue to be the best school we can be and address the issues raised in the inspection report."

I've been dating this girl for about a month now, and it was going really well and we were really liking each other. I was at the point where if I was to go out with my friends I wouldn't be getting with other girls. She said to me to come over and we need to talk, she then told me that she went out on the weekend and kissed another guy, soon after she said she went back to his place and they slept together. It hurts so much cause she said she does like me and she still wants to hang out. It goes against everything that I stand for to keep hanging out with her but there is a big part of me that really wants to.
What should I do?

The Best Butter Pecan Cake
Recipe by yooper
This cake is a bit of work, but it's so worth it! Top with your favorite brand of butter pecan ice cream and you'll think you've died and gone to heaven!
Top Review by Mirj2338
I made this as part of my 9/11 anniversary dinner. The only time I ever find butter pecan flavored anything is when I'm in America. I love the flavor combo, so this really means American to me. I made a non-dairy version of the cake, subbing soy milk for the milk in the cake part of the recipe, and using a carton of Rich Whip, since we don't have CoolWhip where I live. The cake baked beautifully and I got lots of oooooohs when I brought it to the table. Friends who had stuffed themselves silly on hamburgers, hot dogs and coleslaw suddenly found some space in their stomachs for dessert. Just one note: Instruction #3 -- Watch carefully near the end to avoid burning -- this should be in bold, flashing, Las Vegas-style letters, you have to watch very carefully, the pecans toast fast! One minute you have this wonderful smell in your kitchen, and if you're not careful, you'll have the fire department coming to investigate that burning smell. I rescued mine just in time, it was hard not to pick at them before I folded them into the cake. Yooper, thanks for the great recipe!
See Discussion:1 Review
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1⁄4 cup butter
- 2 cups chopped pecans (about 8 ounces)
- 3⁄4 cup butter or 3⁄4 cup high-quality stick margarine, softened
- 2 cups sugar
- 4 larg eggs
- 3 cups sifted flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
Fluffy Frosting
- 1⁄2 cup butter, softened, divided
- 5 tablespoons flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup fat-free cool whip, thawed
Directions See How It's Made
- Prepare the pecans: Preheat the oven to 350°.
- Put the 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) of butter in a shallow baking pan with the chopped pecans and put the pan in the oven for 15- 20 minutes, stirring the pecans and melted butter every few minutes, until the fragrance is wonderfully toasty.
- Watch carefully near the end to avoid burning.
- Remove from pan and set aside.
- Grease and flour three 8 or 9-inch round layer cake pans.
- Prepare the cake: In the large bowl of an electric mixer, cream the 3/4 cup (1 1/2) sticks of butter.
- Beat in the 2 cups of sugar, creaming well.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt.
- Add the 2 teaspoons of vanilla to the milk.
- Beat the flour mixture into the batter in thirds, alternating with the milk mixture.
- Fold in 1 1/3 cups of the butter-toasted pecans into the cake batter.
- Divide batter equally into the prepared pans.
- Bake for about 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- Cool and remove from pans.
- Prepare the frosting: Melt 1 1/2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium saucepan over low-medium heat and stir in the flour.
- Stir until all of the flour has been moistened or at least colored a little by the butter.
- Stir in the milk just a little at a time, stirring constantly and incorporating all the milk each time before adding more, working to incorporate all the flour and avoid lumps.
- Continue until all the milk is in and the mixture is thickened and smooth.
- Transfer to the small bowl of an electric mixer, and beat to remove any lumps you missed.
- Cool completely.
- When the flour mixture is cool, beat in the teaspoon of vanilla, then the softened butter.
- Add the 1 cup of sugar, and beat 2 minutes at medium speed, until the mixture is fluffy and no graininess from sugar remains.
- Fold in the fat-free Cool Whip and the remaining 2/3 cup of butter-toasted pecans.
- Fill and frost the top of the cake.

I will talk about the culinary demo on next entry, ok? Right now I'm going to share with you about "Mystery Bag" Food Challenge. Sounds familiar? Of course, if you're Masterchef fan like me :)
They called it "Mystery Box" challenge where the contestant will receive a box containing one mystery ingredient and they have to use it in the dish they are making. They make it looks easy on TV, right? Believe me, it's not easy. Or maybe it is just me because when I open my "mystery bag", I was puzzled and had to think very hard for a few days. Hahaha..
These are the ingredients in the "mystery bag".
Rutherford and Meyer Waferbites (Double Cheese)
Mill Orchid Classic Apple Juice
Regal Manuka Smoked Salmon
Fogdog Premium Panko Breadcrumb
The Rules:
You must use at least TWO items from the New Zealand "mystery bag" as "hero ingredients" in EACH dish you choose to present. You can also use any ingredient from your own pantry to bring your cuisine to life.
I came out not one but two dishes for this challenge. I decided to prepare Smoked Salmon Creamy Spaghetti for dinner. There will be leftover for the smoked salmon and I don't want to keep it chilled. So I make Smoked Salmon Garden Salad as a starter. It is so easy because all you have to do is toss all the ingredients with your favourite dressing but make sure you prepare the salad last because you don't want it to become soggy.
Baby Butterhead
Cherry Tomatoes
Regal Smoked Salmon
Rutherford and Meyer Waferbites (Double Cheese)
Fresh Thousand Island Dressing
I choosed baby butterhead, radicchio and cherry tomatoes.
Add a little extra crunchiness with croutons and waferbites.
You can use avocado if you can find a ripe avocado in the market.
You can use avocado if you can find a ripe avocado in the market.
Don't forget to add the salmon as well.
Pour the dressing onto the salad and toss evenly.
Pour the dressing onto the salad and toss evenly.
Ready to eat. Make sure you eat it immediately before it becomes soggy.
Spaghetti or any other pasta you prefer
2 tbsp olive oil
1/3 cup chopped shallots
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup Mill Orchid Classic Apple Juice
1/4 cup cooking cream
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp lemon zest ( divided into 1 tbsp and 1 tbsp)
2 tbsp chopped dill
70g Regal Smoked Salmon, cut into bite sized pieces
Fresh ground black pepper
1. Heat to boiling a large pot with salted water in it. Once the water is boiling, add the pasta to the pot. Cook according to the package. You are supposed to cook for al dente (cooked but still a little firm).
While the pasta is cooking, prepare the sauce.
I can just stare at this orange color salmon... beautiful!
2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil on medium heat. Add the shallot and garlic, cook for 2 minutes. Then add apple juice, lemon juice and 1 tbsp lemon zest. Let it boil down by half.
3. Add the cream and let boil for one minute. Stirring occasionally.
The sauce should be done about the same time the pasta is done. But if it get done earlier, just remove the skillet off the heat.
4. Before draining the pasta, scoop out one cup of the pasta liquid and reserve. Drain the pasta and add it to the skillet with the sauce. Add some of the pasta liquid to the pasta if it is a little dry. Add the smoked salmon, dill and remaining lemon zest. Season with fresh ground black pepper.
I just serve straightaway for the skillet because that is how we like it
Close up
The smoked salmon is the hero ingredient for these two dishes. It gave a nice flavour to the pasta too. Without the salmon, the pasta will have a bland taste.
Let's eat!

"Hospital feedback"
About: Royal Bolton Hospital Royal Bolton Hospital Bolton BL4 0JR
Posted by jane chapman
Anything else?
I was told on the phone that booking a wheelchair was not available or necessary as at the main entrance wheel chairs were available "just like supermarket trolleys". I had only to put in a £1 coin and I could use the wheelchair. On arrival with a 93 year old unable to walk without considerable pain and registered disabled , I was told at Reception that there were no wheel chairs available and this had been a problem for many weeks. I asked a porter in the corridor and he said wheel chairs were "rarer thatn hen's teeth". The Trust is in breach of the Disability Discrimination Act and as I have to vist again on Thursday this week with the same severely disabled man I will take the Trust to court if wheel chairs are not available. I again asked at Reception if I could book a wheel chair but was told that I could not. The Trust needs to address this as a matter of urgency.
Response from Royal Bolton Hospital 4 years ago
Your comments were very worrying to us and were immediately raised with the relevant managers who are now undertaking an audit of patient wheelchairs to ensure that the wheelchairs we have listed are all available. If there is any shortfall we will replace immediately. The approach that we are taking will address the concerns raised and ensure all patients that request a wheelchair have access to this facility. A team will be going out today to locate any wheelchairs that have not been returned to the main entrance. If any patients require a wheelchair our reception staff will endeavour to ensure a wheelchair is provided as quickly as possible and the staff have been advised of the importance of providing wheelchairs for patients who require them. We do hope that your experiences in future are better.

French television music channel, Trace TV, has just made its foray into the Indian market by joining DishTV, India's first Direct-to-Home (DTH) entertainment platform promoted by Essel Group, owners of the Zee Network.
Brought in by the Embassy of France, the channel will make its official launch on April 24. An international TV channel dedicated to young people around the world, Trace TV offers a mix of three key genres: Urban music, Urban features and Specials.
Trace TV reaches about 60 countries through nine satellite platforms. With its multi-cultutral content, it targets the 15-24 year age group. As part of its international expansion plans, it is now targeting India as its next key market.
Urban music is an international selection of urban styles, including the latest in Hip Hop, Reggae, Latin Beats, Afro, Club, etc. Urban features on the channel bring reports and interviews from the world of fashion, dance, society, cinema, sports, etc. The third genre, Specials, includes music events from around the world, films and short films, documentaries as well as award shows.
Said Sunil Khanna, CEO, DishTV, "One of the key reasons for channels to come on the DTH platform is that it provides a business model for niche channels which is not available on cable. DishTV offers the Indian audience the power of choice accompanied by unmatched digital picture quality and stereophonic sound, and there is no constraint on the number of channels that can be put on the platform."
Khanna ruled out any Indian content going on this channel. "We are distributing Trace TV as part of our English entertainment package. There may be customisation in content based on the preferences of Indian viewers of Western or European music, but the channel will not migrate to Indian music at any point of time. There are too many channels focusing on Indian music including Channel [V] and MTV. But Trace TV will be purely Western plus European," he added.
Trace TV is the third Western channel in the DishTV bouquet, Soundtrack and VH1 being the other two. Soundtrack is exclusive on DishTV and shows original soundtracks of English movies, songs trailers, etc. VH1 is a complete Western music channel, also available on cable.
Mohamed Bendjebbour, Audiovisual Attaché - Film, TV & Radio Department, Cultural Section of the French Embassy in India, said, "Our main aim is to promote channels originating from France and encourage exchanges between entertainment professionals of France and India. Music is universal and can fit with youth anywhere and Trace TV is a diverse channel offering English, African, American, South American and Caribbean music-something for all."

Keeps Liquid Hot
This was an excellent purchase! The mugs are sturdy, the tops fit perfectly, and they do their job extremely well. The rubberized bottoms keep them from sliding around. My husband uses them for tea, and he's found that the liquid stays hot for hours. If he leaves it in the mug until late afternoon, he finds it's still lukewarm/room temperature. Easy to clean. Indentations on the sides make them easier to grasp if not grasping by the handle. Have had for about a year now and the handles have stayed on. Tea does stain over time, but stains can be removed by making a baking soda paste and letting it coat the mug for a while--scrubs stain right off. These mugs are used almost daily in our household.Read More
ok mug
I purchased these and was disappointed that the handles on both broke off after less than a month's use. the handles are a little awkward to use as well, and the cup tends to get pretty hot, so beware your lips when sipping.Read More

bottom-great, top-nightmare
Big problem is that top of mug so easily comes loose when you're holding or drinking. Result is that beverage spills out on hand or clothes. It simply needs a firmer commitment to the mug. Without this design improvement, it's a non-starter. With it, I'd be quite satisfied. I bought two mugs at once and both have this problem.Read More

Perfect size
We needed cups to fit under the coffee maker dispenser and these were perfect. The lid doesn't stay on well unless you make sure and give it an extra twist to be sure it is snug. Not so sure I woul want to travel with it!Read More
Awful for the price and not meant for beverages on
On the site these look nice, lids pop off with coffee in them due to expansion of the metal. Very cheap metal , for $XX I expected nice!Read More
Negative Review
I exchanged the original order because the lids were not secure and tight. They tended to pop off. The replacements are a bit more secure but not much of an improvement.Read More

text: Several bloggers claim that Eddie LeBaron was obtained via the expansion draft. There's only one problem with that: it isn't true. LeBaron retired from the Redskins on Feb 16, 1960. He was not part of the expansion draft. The expansion draft was held on March 13, 1960. The Cowboys were allowed to take three players from each team, and the three players the Cowboys took from the Redskins were: LB Tom Braatz, C Joe Nicely, and RB Doyle Nix. The Cowboys didn't sign LeBaron until June 23, 1960. The Cowboys had to give the Redskins their 1st and 6th round picks in the 1961 draft for the rights to LeBaron. They didn't have to give up any draft picks or players for the guys they obtained in the expansion draft. It makes a great story about how the early Cowboys might've pulled one over on the Redskins, but unfortunately it's not true and I have no idea where this information comes from.

We make hardware recommendations to customers, but customers make hardware purchases directly with the hardware vendors.
Therefore, we would like our customers to use the "Purchases" feature of the Help Desk to inform US as to the status of our recommendations.
That is, our customer (not the admin) will
1) Approve our recommendation, indicating they agree to pursue the purchase.
2) Let us know when the hardware has been ordered/purchased.
3) Update the ticket to let us know the hardware has been Received at the site.
We have tried using "custom attributes" but have not (yet) found a way to expose a ticket's "Purchase" information to customers.
Thanks in advance for any feedback!

Not unless you make them at least a helpdesk admin I don't believe there is a way to do this. What I might suggest is just have them notate the ticket when they approve buy and receive your recommendation

Hi Rick,
Currently, the best way to accomplish this would be to create the purchase on a ticket (make the customer the ticket creator, or at least CCed on it) and ask the customer to comment back through email on that ticket when they approve, purchase, etc. There currently aren't Ticket Anywhere commands for purchases, so an Admin would still need to manually update the purchase state, but you would have a record in the ticket as the customer progresses the purchase. (Ah, upon closer inspection, I now see this is what Alex recommended. Guess this was a case of the "first day back to work after the holidays" post.)
As peter mentioned, you might also create a feature request to detail out how this could be done better for your situation and so others can spice-up and add their ideas also.

Thanks for taking time to consider this issue.
We really like how the Purchases component stands alone, both programatically and graphically, and hoped to share it with our customers.
We have been amazed at the level of customization we're able to achieve with Spiceworks...not to mention how easy it is to accomplish, and how reliable it's been.
Certainly not complaining! ;)
