Hannah qualified as a primary school teacher from the University of Nottingham in 2006. During her eight years teaching in schools she became a Reading Recovery Teacher specialising in supporting struggling readers.
expected is second to none and makes her awesome when working with Year 6 students! When Hannah became a mother she gave up full time teaching, but her love of the job brought her to Kip on a part time basis. The school system’s loss is our gain. She has two little girls and loves to walk off her dinner each evening with her family, so in 2012 she successfully completed a half marathon and has continued running to keep fit. This is further testament to her determination to be the best she can be at everything she attempts.
She describes her approach to her work with children as seeking to “harness the curiosity and awe” of the children in her care and is passionate about helping children to grow in confidence to achieve their potential. Hannah’s own potential has already been recognised by Ofsted inspectors no less. This is where the title ‘film star’ comes into She is popular with both tutors and students alike and not just because of her good play. supply of break time games which are great In a previous Ofsted inspection, Hannah fun and get some sneaky maths practice in achieved an ‘outstanding’ report from the at the same time… inspectors who not only filmed her lesson but now use it as a training tool for new So why not contact Jo for your free Ofsted inspectors.

COMPUTER TIP Beware of Windows Recovery In the good old days of XP it was possible to boot from a CD and do a repair install of Windows. This left all programs, data and settings intact but with each release of Windows things have got less friendly! Recently a user had invoked ‘Refresh Windows’ saying leave all data intact. What it SHOULD have done is to delete all desktop applications (leaving a note of what had been removed on the desktop) and leave the data alone. What it actually did was to delete all Programs AND data. I was able to recover some of the lost data from the disk but much (including emails) was gone. It is very important that you have a good backup and certainly should backup all your data before letting windows fix things!

CONSUMER CHAMPION
Bring on the Mega Ombudsman! If you’ve made a complaint but you’re still not happy, where do you turn when things go wrong (after Resolver, of course)? The answer’s simple – go to an ombudsman. Ombudsmen (and women) are best thought of as experts in their various fields and are a bit like judges. When you make a complaint to them, they don't just look at the legal stuff, they are able to look at what's fair and reasonable. If an ombudsman agrees with your case they have lots of ways to make things right, including telling businesses to pay compensation.
Not all ombudsmen are created equal. For example, Ombudsman Services and the Financial Ombudsman – who can look at money matters, energy, communications and more – have sweeping powers and are a real force for good, helping millions of people. But other schemes don’t have the same powers, which means that businesses in some sectors aren’t being held to account properly when they get things wrong. One of the big problems with having a different kind of service with varying rules for every business sector (from parking to pensions) is it can be really confusing if the rules between schemes are contradictory. Many people suggested that having a bad experience with one ombudsman scheme meant they were less likely to use any ombudsman. That really worries me –unresolved complaints leave a bitter taste in the mouth.
Ombudsmen are important for lots of reasons. Knowing we’ve got somewhere to turn if something goes wrong actually helps us have more faith in certain industries. In many ways, ombudsmen are our safety net – we aren’t guaranteed to get what we want, but we should get a fair We love ombudsmen at Resolver. They’re hearing. free, fair and fabulous. But when it comes Even though having a free way to get a to using different ones, there can be some complaint resolved is great, it’s important frustrations, both for me and for people to revisit the powers these schemes have using them. and ask, ‘can we do this better?’ Martin Lewis and the team at MoneyAt the moment, if you make a complaint SavingExpert recently released a report the business usually has 8 weeks to rewritten in partnership with the Governsolve the matter (some have much longer ment which took a look at all of the existperiods). It’s one thing to standardise this ing ombudsmen. It’s a really interesting timescale to 8 weeks for everything. But read and I must say, I agree with all the the report goes further.

weeks is far to long for most complaints. Why not radically reduce that time? I also believe it’s really important to publish as much as possible about the complaints ombudsmen receive, so we can all see what firms are getting right – and wrong. As far as I’m concerned, it’s clear that every industry needs an ombudsman. Each ombudsman should have the same powers and should be able to make firms cough up compensation where it’s appropriate.
the mega ombudsmen! The nation needs you! What do you think? What powers should ombudsmen have – and where do we need one most? You can find out more about your rights or make a complaint using Resolver for free at www.resolver.co.uk. Or view our Twitter page @WalkerResolver @resolvercouk or go to facebook.com/resolvercouk
It’s not a big stretch to introduce this ‘gold standard’ for all ombudsmen everywhere. And in just the same way that I’ve worked hard to make the process of making a complaint simple and the same for everything, it’s time to focus on what happens if you want to take things further. Bring on
