Proposal to allow all teachers a free supply of chocolate when teaching at Broad Heath School

The purpose of this report is to discuss a proposal which has recently been made by the year 3, 4, 5 and 6 teachers to the Head Teacher of Broad Heath School, requesting that free supplies of chocolate be made readily available to all teaching staff when teaching.  All teaching and support staff are in absolute agreement that this would bring many positive benefits to the school, and we will describe these benefits here. 

Firstly, we are completely convinced that a free supply of chocolate would increase the number of happy faces both around the staff room and throughout school.  At least 90% of teaching staff enjoy eating a variety of chocolate on a regular basis.  If they were to be given this free, not only would it save them money but it would also save them going out to the shop to buy the aforementioned chocolate.  These two reasons, added with the delight that teacher would have when actually eating the chocolate, would most definitely make teachers happier and more relaxed. 

Secondly, we passionately believe that the quality of teaching would greatly improve if teachers were to be given a regular supply to Cadburys, Nestle and other assorted chocolate goodies.  Teachers would actually increase the happy chemicals in their brain as a result of eating the delicious chocolate, and therefore would be more relaxed and ready to teach their classes.  When they are sat struggling over a huge pile of books to mark, a mouthful of chocolate would wake them up and get their brains and pens working again! What parent wouldn’t want their children being taught by happy, chocolate-fuelled teachers?

Finally, we are all in agreement that the pupils Broad Heath School would benefit from their teachers receiving these free supplies of chocolate.  Not only would they receive a better standard of teaching from happier staff, but they would most certainly receive less telling off!  Teachers would be so happy from eating their free chocolate, that they would never have any reasons to shout at their pupils.  In fact, even when the teachers have real reason to get upset with their class, they could simply reach into their draw and gobble down whatever delicious snack was nearby, which would most definitely make them feel better!

The staff at Broad Heath School ask you to seriously consider their proposal.  We truly believe that a free and endless supply of chocolate would lead to happier staff, happier pupils and an all-round happier school.  Surely no one can deny that an increase in chocolate within school grounds would be a wonderful thing?

    The negative effects of deforestation on the environment make it cruel, heartless, and selfish. We must take a stand against the loss of the rainforest, the destruction of animals’ homes, and the increase of climate change. You should then continue your argument against deforestation by also providing the counter-argument.

      Can you explain this further ?

    Here are a few reasons why Broad Heath School should be considered for an Outstanding award by the Prime Minister of Britain.

    We are going to outline a few important values that we follow at BH.

    BH helps us in becoming brilliant citizens by supporting us to be kind and helping others.
    Respecting each other and the staff at all times helps us build a better team.
    Our parents communicate with the school through coffee mornings and teacher meetings.
    A good teacher can help us gain more knowledge and be happy.
    Doing fun activities in school like after school clubs and trips keeps us wanting to learn more.

    Honesty is the best policy to keep a happy school with good communication.
    Every day coming to school on time helps us to learn how to be good time keepers.
    Awards for good behaviour, certificates and treats for trying hard make us happy.
    Teamwork is the best bit about school as we learn together and help each other always.
    Heroes are hard to find but are easy to be at Broad Heath.

    Please can you consider giving Broad Heath this award as they deserve it. Parents and children agree with the values that help everyone.

      Well done Ilyas can you think of any more points ?

    I got 100 percent in maths.

    Deforestation is bad because were destroying homes for endangered animals and were gaining less oxygen by cutting down trees if we do not stop no animal would have a home be able to feed their family and if we carry on lots of people will die because oxygen is mostly coming from rainforests so we need to stop this now by putting deforestation posters around the school.

    1. Miss Nisa

      How else can you stop deforestation ?

    A reason deforestation Occurs Because
    .we need things like paper and wood . We should not cut down trees because they provide us oxygen and shade . Another reason we should not cut down trees is because it is the animals habitat . Did u know there’s over 10,000 species of Animal in the amazon rainforest and there’s over 80,000 plant species in the Amazon rainforest

    Deforestation is happening a lot and it is bad because once a day once a minute a hole bunch of trees the size of a football pitch is being destroyed.Imagine if you were a rain forest animal how would you feel with all your habitats being destroyed having no were to live.And without trees we will also struggle because 80% of the world’s trees are in the rainforest and trees give us oxygen and without oxygen we can’t live.

    Imagine being in magnificent rainforest
    and people cutting down trees Don’t Cut Down trees if you cut down trees animals and humans won’t have oxygen
    to breathe the size of the forest that have been destroyed are 300 football pitches the people who cut down trees are called loggers and every minute 36 football pitches have been destroyed

  14. Rayan M.

    Deforestation is a really big problem that makes me sad. It’s when people cut down a lot of trees in the forests. Trees are important because they provide us with clean air to breathe and they are homes to many animals. When trees are cut down, animals lose their homes and some even become endangered or extinct. Deforestation also makes the air and water dirty. We need to take care of our forests and find ways to protect them, like planting more trees and using less paper. I hope we can stop deforestation and keep our forests safe for the animals and for us.

    1. Miss Nisa

      Well done Rayan. Can you think of any more arguments for deforestation ?

    Why Deforestation should stop!
    Deforestation should stop because rainforests is a very important part of are life it provides us with Oxygen. Did you know one rainforest can provide almost 260 IMB. to help are world we should recycle paper put posters for don’t hurt Oxygen and then send letters to are local mp saying why you should not cut down trees and then she will contact are local authorities and are government and share are letters which may convince them to stop deforestation. One more thing all the Rainforests in the world provide roughly 50% of the world Oxygen so stop harming are planet recycle paper and anything from wood you don’t need and stop cutting trees and rainforests this is what is causing deforestation so please recycle help are planet.

  16. Emil D.

    Deforestation is not a good choice because your destroying animal’s habitats.If animals lose their homes where will they live.Also it’s a bit stupid of some reasons that people cut down trees and deforest.

    Your wasting paper and people also do it for even more weird reasons like even for shampoo or other wood products.Some people even do it for furniture in their house to make it look better.So pleaseeee try and keep deforestation not happening in the forest.Also can you please try not to use wood products unless your desperate and need to use it.

    1. Miss Woodman

      Lovely points Emil, make sure all your sentences make sense and have the correct punctuation.

  17. Hamza M.

    Deforestation is a big destruction to our environment. We need to stop deforestation because it is killing animals and their homes. We cut do cut down trees to get fruits but what about the animals that need oxygen like us?
    The thing that we could do to stop deforestation is to make a poster that says do not make deforestation carry on .
    Most loggers don’t even know that their ruining the environment all they care about is them doing their job and creating paper for other people in the world.

  18. Havin A.

    Deforestation is a very important part of a growing forest gets chopped down but nearly half the world is water we don’t need paper from trees just use roo roo paper made of a material that doesn’t mean much to us and kangaroo droppings.trees give oxygen and what else a home for many animals like flys wasps bird’s monkeys and ants beetles to.if we don’t stop the world will be water in 100 years people who does this are called loggers but still we don’t need trees for everything just use recycled bits or something to make furniture or paper but ur not just killing trees your killing animals who work hard trying to make the world a better place with we can still do.

    1. Miss Nisa

      Well done Havin. Remember to use the correct punctuation in your sentences.

  19. Jebrin Y.

    Deforestation is a bad that is happening people reading this listen start telling people about this information trees are getting cut down so much rainforest are getting destroyed we should fight back against deforestation to help this we should recycle paper loggers will cut less tree’s some loggers even only cut tress for paper.
    Trees give paper wood medicine and a lot more things if all the tress get cut down the soil will become hard and some foods
    will take some work to grow because the will become hard.

  20. Rexford A.

    Imagine being in the rainforest before, it would be nice and vibrant but nowadays these creatures called humans are now destroying these innocent species. Not only does it affects animals it affects us because trees give us oxygen something we breathe in.
    This is called deforestation. Every minute the size of 36 football pitches are being cut down, this means in an Century there will no sign of animal spicies on Earth. That means we have to do something now! Before it is too late. We can help by recycling paper or contacting your local mp and tell her/him to fight for deforistation and this also affects on us.What if you need information about a certain animal but you can’t find it this would be because of deforistation (the process of cutting or clearing a certain area).Deforistation must end today.

    Imagine walking in a forest super happy to see the amazing nature until thousands is people are cutting down the trees . It is a major problem to our amazing planet it is called deforestation.
    every year millions of animals habitats are being destroyed . Unless you do this first call your local mmp recycle paper and use other materials .
    Because of it in a matter is 100 years there will be no rainforest and every year thousands of generations die just because you break their habitat . In the world every minute 36 football pitches are cut down that is the equivalent to 46-58 thousands square miles per year .
    It causes other terrible things to our planet like we cut rainforest in rainforest there is a lot of trees and what does trees provide oxygen so it’s just not bad about the animals it is bad for us and the beautiful Earth

  24. Sami J.

    Imagine taking a look outside and not see anymore trees. The once thick and abundant forests completely gone. The beauty of nature completely wiped out. Imagine all the animals we know today not being around anymore. The animals that we take for granted and don’t think twice about.This is all because of deforestation. Deforestation is the the act of clearing a wide area of trees. Deforestation comes in many forms, including fires, clear-cutting for agriculture, ranching and development, unsustainable logging for timber, and degradation due to climate change. At the rate at which deforestation is occurring the later generations might never get to experience and see these luxuries. Some 46-58 thousand square miles of forest are lost each year—equivalent to 48 football fields every minute.
    Deforestation also has many other effects on the planet. things The environmental costs of deforestation can include species extinction, erosion, flooding, reduced land productivity, desertification, and climate change and increased atmospheric carbon dioxide.

  25. Sami J.

    Deforestation is a major global problem with serious consequences to the planet. These consequences have a negative effect on the climate, biodiversity, the atmosphere and threatens the cultural and physical survival of life. Deforestation is the permanent destruction of indigenous forests and woodlands.
