I'm a teacher at a college that recently got downgraded after an ofsted visit to requires improvement. We currently don't have a principal and the rest of the senior leadership have been completely disorganised. After the requires improvement news all teachers were sat down and told by the chair of governors that we need to improve our teaching and results or get out. The next day we were told by senior leadership that senior leadership only got requires improvement due to teachers bad performance and are taking no blame in the part they played at all. I'm beyond furious. I put in so much extra time and go above and beyond to the detriment of my family, when I was observed the inspector was complimentary about my lesson so I feel aggrieved that I'm being told I'm rubbish. We've also been told redundancies are likely and one slt turned round to me and the rest of the maths department and said we only have to give you 4 weeks notice just so you know. I want to say to slt what's your plan to improve why are you giving is absolutely no direction other than every single student must get higher than their target grade. I've already got a job interview next week as it turns out there's quite a lot of maths jobs around so I feel like resigning next week and leaving at Easter as the environment is so toxic but don't want to let my students down just before their exams. Sorry for the rant hoping someone's been through something similar and can give advice
