Soup?
We had a child that when they arrived the parents wrote to say under no circumstances were they prepared to discuss the fact that he may be autistic, he was to be given no concessions and just had to 'fit in' (both parents were teachers, and I worked very closely with one of them in a previous role), our senco tried to get them to change their minds but they refused, their child had 5 years of really struggling with us, just because you don't have a diagnosis doesn't mean that you don't have that condition.We have more difficulty convincing parents that their kids might benefit from being assessed - and some want to keep it secret from their kids. When you've got a kid who is literally bouncing off the walls, can't stop moving, can't stop tapping, can't focus for long enough to hear a five word sentence and/or shows enough characteristics of Autism for it to be practically a case of going down the list and saying Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes... - and then Mum or Dad chips in with an offended HOW DARE you suggest my child isn't perfectly normal, you're just shit at your job, they're perfectly fine at home, you're just picking on them to make it sound like it's not your fault/other protected characteristics are the reason why you're doing this/you just want an excuse to kick them out, it's really depressing, as you know that a) if they had that assessment, they'd be able to access additional support, special arrangements for examinations, less helpful staff would have no choice but to take their assessed needs into account during lessons and b) the poor kids would have an answer for why they find school/people/life in general so hard and it's not because they're fundamentally thick or a bad person.
Prob why she filed late last year, wonder if they're in for this year?Her tax return must be a nightmare. I pay a (non Sunday school teaching) accountant to fill in ours as it’s about 9 pieces of paper and I cba (I don’t even earn enough in the uk to pay tax). It makes me stressed out even thinking about all the different income streams and outgoings she should be keeping track of.
ooh, Mom did similar in a xmas show but with pomegranate cos it's FANCY and called it a makeshift trifle or some such. obviously, jack won't remember that or she'd have had a go like she did at all the other triflesI’ve said this before but I’ll say it again because it’s nice.
Jamaican Ginger Cake- bought.
Double Cream
Small tin of Mandarin segments (any brand will do)
Slice cake lengthways.
Whisk cream until thick.
Drain mandarins.
Softly softlyfold in half of the drained mandarins with the whisked cream and then sandwich the two halves of the cake together .
Basic and delicious.
It's a term used when submitting anonymised annual data to the Care Commission of people with autism and or/learning disorders known to the local authority in a particular year. Obviously this tends to be people who require more assistance or have complex needs of which autism is only one. Data includes type of housing, whether in employment and type of employment, who they live with, category of carer (eg family, spouse etc), whether they use day centres and so on. Aspergers is still used in this context as opposed to Classic Autism as well.She's also certainly not a person I would describe as having "classic autism". I've used that term or similar when referring to individuals I've worked with in the past, and by it I mean people that exhibit all the most commonly known, 'classic' traits. A person that if you meet them, and have a basic understanding of autism, you'd likely suspect they were autistic within a few minutes of interacting with them. Jack in no way presents like that, so I cannot see why a GP would have uttered those words (insert Jimmy here).
Not only does that sound amazing, but ”basic and delicious“ could be a great Tinder bio if anyone’s looking!I’ve said this before but I’ll say it again because it’s nice.

I first put it together when I was a teen ( 12-ish ?) and just learning about making things.ooh, Mom did similar in a xmas show but with pomegranate cos it's FANCY and called it a makeshift trifle or some such. obviously, jack won't remember that or she'd have had a go like she did at all the other trifles
I made it and it was OOOFT
It was probably classified as a biohazard by the UK government and the recipe sealed in a vault for the greater good.I'm laughing to myself because I've just remembered the time when Jack whipped her Twitter followers into a frenzy over her vegan crackling recipe which, to this day, still has not been made available to the public.
This photo always reminds me of someone sitting on the loo using their phone. Something about the pose.
Not that I recall , it was a recipe from a magazine and I’m hoping at least 3 Home Economists gave it the go aheadDon’t the mandarins make the cream curdle? It makes me think of mixing orange juice and milk...
I'm in with the key worker kids, I managed fractions and the first few probability questions but then they got far too hard for meIt's almost as if she's reaching out to an old school friend..

But she is very tiny and may need it to work out how tall a ladder she needs to reach into her top cupboardsI hated every second I had to do Maths but a quick Google informs me that Pythagoras' Theorem can be used by window cleaners, and painters/decorators to work out how tall a ladder they need to work safely. Given that Jack is neither of these things, I am just going to assume that she's full of shit, as I believe she is in literally every single area of her life.

Or they wanted to do a welfare checkIf she’s telling them she can’t afford books/printing (and she probably is) the school may be doing drop offs rather than have people go to site. Other than that, they’d likely only go round under that guise if they were concerned about SB’s welfare and while she’s Jack, I doubt that’s the case.
It may also be bollocks and she’s just read other people mentioning drop offs...
ETA: in terms of the go to site, I have no idea about the geography of southend or how big/small SBs catchment is so full disclaimer that it may not be a realistic option for his school at all.
On a little grunk and this made me HOOTShe probably thinks triangulation involves Pythagoras' theorem.
Ohmychrist new fave!!! The Jack on the right really is something
