curlygirly:

It wouldn't make any difference if you started to archive stuff yourself weebecka, you've lied blatantly when the evidence is there for all to see. Why would having an archive of all your lies make any difference to you. I suppose you might be able to keep track of what you'd said. I guess if you lie a lot that'd be helpful. Wouldn't know myself.

Even if weebecka could get this working (it requires Linux or Unix and Python, or Cygwin for wget.exe) all it does is download what was posted.

It would be no help to her. It is technically possible to remove posts or add new ones in, but it is horribly complicated to do so, easy to detect, and technically beyond someone who doesn't know what an RSS feed is.

For reference: (originally posted on the past papers thread):

Sorry, is this for real ?

You've forgotten becka that I have an archive of what you wrote before postings started mysteriously disappearing. (All the quotes below in italics are weebecka's words. The initials are a subsitute for the HMI's name for obvious reasons)

I have to say you are the most laughably appalling liar I have ever met.

Firstly the most blatant lie, "Others quoted me as having said that" (that being ; she was responsible for assaults at the school)

Posted by weebecka on 30/12/2010 at 09:21 on the thread ""Poor Behaviour == Poor Teaching" thread has disappeared"

"Yes I'm quite well curlygirly, despite all the assaults on staff which were a direct consequence of J J instruction to shut down the withdrawal facilities for the students who committed them."

and as well,

Posted by weebecka on 14/12/10 at 21:00 on the thread "A child regularly swearing at a teacher - telephone the police?"

"The violent assaults on staff to which I refer were caused by HMI shutting down the appropriate provision for the students concerned with no alternative available, not to SLT or the unions. The unions were dealing with hundreds and hundreds of staff in Cumbria who were being brutalised by inappropriate interventions at the time. They were effective but slow due to being grossly overstretched. The executive head who was brought in (small part time) was grossly misinformed as to the issues in the school (by HMI). It took her a while to get her bearings but the solutions which was finally reached (whereby I continued to teach all classes but one) was what I wanted, it worked well and I am very grateful to all involved who made it possible. HMI WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE ASSAULTS. What should happen - should the staff be failed or should the students get criminal records? "

Finally, the second and less directly blatant (marginally) lie, here are some of Weebecka's positive comments about the HMI in question.

"Most disturbingly our most ignorant and damaging inspector was  J "

"She (JJ) clearly had absolutely no idea what I was doing or dealing with and didn't bother to ask. The reputation of Ofsted would be greatly improved if we could name and shame bad inspectors"

"I have seen many other seriously able teachers' health and careers destroyed by judgements during external inspections. J HMI (chief inspector for maths) is the inspector to whom we are both referring"

This post also contains my favourite ever weebecka quote:

"I have never had bad feedback, just some bizarrely questionable feedback which has made it apparant that the inspector has had no insight into what was going on in my classroom."

"J had no relevant experience or insights into schools like ours (unlike some of the other inspectors and we saw a lot, but  J was our HMI).  The direct conesquences of her intervetions where truly horrific and made is much harder for us to deliver the results which brought us out of special measures.There would be no issue for me if she showed any insight into the modifications required to Ofsted's remit which would prevent such horror stories in the future."

"Most disturbingly our most ignorant and damaging inspector was  J - who is the chief HMI for maths! (I was head of maths). She clearly had absolutely no idea what I was doing or dealing with and didn't bother to ask."

"I don't dislike  J.  But she's got herself into a system which has made her behave in ways which are seriously destructive to schools.  And if she can't fix the system she should leave and go back to teaching."

"I am not an never have had any interest in a witch hunt against  J and it's difficult to talk about these issue without seeming like I am."

weebecka:

Bombay Sapphire and betamale - do make sure that you robustly provide the evidence to back up your claims.  It would look a little unprofessional were you just to write disparaging letters which are apparently unfounded.  

I shall be interested to see the evidence to which you will refer appear.  It's quite astonishing what can be done with this forum.

You are making the assumption I value that. I don't openly represent any school, HE/FE establishment or mathematical organisation. I am a just  40 something kicking around being a classroom plod nor would I link myself to any body. I have my views, I express them as an independent person rather than one who links themselves with those you have (which seem to change as soon as somebody remembers you as the cleaner/work experience kid rather than a freelance maths guru)

Moving on....any  organisation who had one ounce of sense would distance themselves from you in a professional capacity and it would not take long for them to make a judgement or your contribution here. Of 1500 posts, probably 1/5 are just tripe about education (which you have never really been successful in) the rest are a mix of coded sh***t and insults. Insults are fine but to openly represent some 'well known' establishments and do that...well...you decide...

I will credit you 3-4 very good posts. so ~1/500............................

DM:

Several TESsers are boycotting the ATM Conference valed.   I still think it would be wise for them to engage the services of a top-notch security team for that particular session or it is likely to descend into chaos.
