I have been teaching Y6 (first year teacher) and have been told through a less senior member of SMT, who feels sorry for me and felt I should be pre-warned, that I will be there again next year. I was given a preference form and requested Key Stage 1. I have placement experience down there which I loved and my school are aware I am not KS2 trained only.
I understand I have to fit where I'm needed, a consolidation year is good, it will be easier doing a second year there and I like the phase leader.
However, I have previously raised concerns about a teacher who class shares (kind of team teaching) in year 6 who I have been paired with all year. She in effect is a bully and very undermining and rude. When I raised the concerns I was shot down by SMT and decided for a peaceful life to just get through and try to keep a low profile.
It looks like I will be doing this team teaching again and am really dreading it. I feel very upset they had no intention of telling me I wouldn't be getting a preference or even praising (for once) that I did a good job with Y6 and they want me to do it again.
Know there is no real solution, I will probably bring up with my phase lead that I'd rather not team teach with the bully but I know in reality its probably set in stone.
I will certainly be resigning in a years time, I can't now as too late to apply elsewhere and need to have certainty of a job financially.
