So I'm a level 3 ta, hope I'm ok posting on here!
Just asking for opinions and maybe an insight into what's 'normal' in other schools.
I work in early years, very experienced, so any observations are for continuous professional development, rather than the type you may have as a newer member of staff.
Previously I would have 1 a year, normally during a phonics lesson in which I would have my own group. I have obviously been observed many times over the years, as I have worked with a variety of teachers, some nqts, who have a lot of observations but have only normally had one personal one a year.
Well..... I have 3 this month, have already had one this year and I'm wondering if this is 'fair'
I'm fairly calm and also confident in my abilities, so generally quite unfazed by being observed but I obviously have my limits!!
My dh finds it ludicrous that someone on £14k a year, is subjected to such scrutiny and put under such immense pressure and when put like this, well, I can see his point!
Any input much appreciated, thanks
