I work in a large secondary school. We have two open evenings coming up : one main school and one sixth form on two consecutive Thursdays .
School day finishes 3.10 pm as normal and the evenings start at 5 for three hours. Not all of us need to be at both but many do.
Work life balance!!??? hahahahahahhahhaaahhhaha! I actually dodn't think many of our SLT have children between 0 - 16 and a full time working spouse. Most hods and hofs have grown children, no children or SAHPs as partners... I, on the other hand , am a FT working mother with a FT fellow teacher DH. I thought it would get easier as my DCs got older but it really hasn't.
Anyone want to compare/play Top Trumps/ gloat?
DH (largeish private school) has two Saturday Open Mornings but only needs to attend one and he doesn't need to go to the sixth form evening.
Whether you're a permanent teacher, supply teacher or student teacher, you'll find others in the same situation on our Staffroom forum.
