I'm a teacher of teenage special needs children and I love it, but am really struggling at the moment. I'm 25 weeks pregnant which I know isn't too far along and there isn't actually that long until the holidays, but I've had to take the day off today because my head is spinning and I'm just so exhausted and fed up, to be honest. I ache everywhere and am so run down.
My class need a lot of support and one pupil can get quite agressive, and we are often understaffed meaning I have to get involved if anything does kick off. Most days I have to fight to get the correct amount of staff in my room in order to get everything done, and even then it can be difficult. The staff I have are amazing, but I do think that management take advantage of the fact that we get on with things and cope, and they don't seem to have taken into account the fact that I'm pregnant and we are understaffed...
I don't really know what I'm asking here, just feel crap.
