i work 3 days a week in a secondary school. my head of dept and head know i'm pregnant but not many other people. since i had dd 3 years ago and went part-time i haven't had a classroom of my own, which is what i expect really, so no complaints there. but last pg i had severe spd and had to take sick leave well before i'd wanted to take my maternity leave. i'm hoping that won't happen this time as i know the signs to look out for now and will know when to take it easy. trouble is, this year i teach in 4 different classrooms, all of them flights of stairs and some a playground away from each other and it's quite hectic getting there and carting all my stuff to the rooms.
now i'm pg, is it reasonable to ask to be based in just one room perhaps from after easter? and i teach a full day on wednesdays and have to do break duty as well (two hours before break, two hours after before lunch time). would it be unreasonable to ask i don't do break duty any more, just because i need more wee breaks and a sit down as i'm pretty knackered?
