I now teach 20 classes.
I think all school leaders should try a few weeks of this (if they haven't) especially if they come from a Maths/English background so they fully understand the implications of things they ask teachers to do.
Interviewed a teacher who left the profession.
Why did you resign?
“I have a Master’s degree. I work really hard. I love teaching kids and am great at my job. I do it all for a disgracefully low salary. All of that and I’ve never felt so disrespected by so many.”
If teaching was just teaching it would be straightforward.
But it’s not.
It’s
Teacher
Counsellor
First aider
Friend
Listener
Planner
Data analyst
Showman
Cleaner
Supervisor
Evaluator
Assessor
Team member
Actor
Team leader
Carer
Protector
And that’s why it’s exhausting.

10. Personally, I am trying to do it all, and maintain my marbles along with my morals and integrity. I argue that this is becoming increasingly less possible for everyone - it is extremally difficult and a huge drain on mental health as you are drained of energy and sleep.
I interviewed a teacher who resigned last year.
I asked…
