Well this has kicked in for me. It doesn't matter how long I've been teaching, how old I get, how many set of results I have under my belt, every year it's the same. Two weeks prior to results day I have a deep, sick dread feeling in the pit of my stomach about results. I become irritable and on edge. It's ludicrous.
I know I did all I could to support my students and went above and beyond. I'm sure they would agree that I have been a supportive and effective teacher.
But it doesn't make me worry any less.
I don't teach a core subject and nor do I teach in a school who overly scrutinise individual teacher's results. This dread is wholly of my own making.
I wish I wasn't like this. I wish I could control my anxiety about results.
