Cupboard hell
I work educating the masses. I had a colleague who hated to throw ANYTHING away.

I have a real thing against hoarding- my nan and sister were/are terrible hoarders and so many, many of my hours were wasted emptying the cupboard of crap that accumlated every term.

Top five bits of crap that were not needed but squirreled away

5. Bags and bags of paper work of e.g. medication permission slips. For ex pupils.
4. Bags and bags of soft and knitted toys. The more random, moth-eaten and useless the better.
3. Tins of felt pens with no lids.
2. Bags of sticks.
1. A typed list of wingdings symbols. For reference.

My mum keeps printing out emails.
Of forwarded jokes and funnies.

My sister lives with her now, and we say we are saving it all up as evidence when we want to put her in a home.

I was brave last PD day
and threw out the plans from teaching year one I had from 3 years ago.
I still have them on the computer though.

I can understand that...
Especially if you are in the same age-range long term but would you need a note that says little Jimmy can have his inhaler four times a day of little Jimmy left 2 years ago??

I only taught year 1 for one year.
I have kept the staff meeting minutes for the last three years though. Heaven knows why.
