It is a long story so I'll try to keep it as short as possible.
Job: Secondary school teacher of 30 + years and rated excellent by Ofsted and others prior to joining my last school 3 years ago.
Head of dept was really nasty and bullied me really badly. I went down all routes, unions, OH, grievances, governors etc but to no avail. The bullying got worse and I ended up off work many times through stress and depression. School didn't really do anything. New headmaster started targeting me for every thing he could. I couldn't breathe without him taking out formal meetings. rest of dept left one by one and they were replaced by newly qualified teachers and some were not even qualified.
I was dismissed through ill health last year. I decided to take early retirement even though I didn't wish to retire. I love teaching and I feel as though part of my heart has been wrenched out of me. I'm 57 years old.
I have considered doing supply but would I get work with the dismissal through ill health hanging over my head?
