I have been teaching (Secondary English) for 23 years and have mostly enjoyed it and had success, both in terms of promotion and exam results. 4 Years ago my school reorganised into Faculties and I did not get the job. I was Head of ENglish up until then. SInce then, I feel that everything I have dne has been undermined and undervalued. Our new Head appears to hate me (there are reasons why this might be so, but they would probably out me) and is bullying me. On Friday, my very supportive Head of Faculty left. I don't feel I can do it any more. I already have a heart Arrhythmia caused by stress and can't face dealing with a whole new department (the other ENglish teacher has also left).
I am trying not to let it spoil my Christmas, but I genuinely don't know whther I will find the strength to go back in January.
THoughts? Advice?
