Foundations/rising wall help

My idea was to use odd bits of timber props to the opposite side to hold the thin sheeting in place while I back fill. Then when the concrete goes in, pull the timber props and sheet out. The issue is will the corner collapse into the concrete though....................................

Building inspector came round today, nice cheery bloke who was happy to chat. He's got absolutely no problems with the foundations so far. He just said as long as I do what the SE specified, then he's happy :)

Shuttering trenches never seems to work very well. Depends how neat machine driver has been. 6mm ply is laughable but feel free to try use this then backfill. You will soon give up!

 

iv found pallets either side wedged with everything pulled out good solution. Pull out props and pallets as Conc rises to be most effective cheap method as usually have loads of pallets. 

 

Ive filled lost corners with conc before but think textbook founds should have nice vertical sides so not ideal
