I cant handle it anymore. I have a few personal issues that are massively taking up time in my life, time and energy that I used to put into being a head of department. I'm letting my department staff down and just csnt do my normal teaching job as well as the HOD stuff.
The stress involved on top of the workload fills me with dread regularly.
I'm head of a department that contains a few subjects but I'm the only teacher that teaches my subject and non of the other staff will/can do the TLR aspect. Therefore, the school would need to hire another teacher within the department to replace the TLR aspect.....but that's the problem. I need another member of staff with my subject, it just being me with no one else is part of the problem (it's a practical subject so it's quite demanding for lesson resources etc). I'd happily do 4 days instead of 5 if neefed and dropping the TLR would only be a drop of £160 so well worth it.
Has anyone handed in their TLR and could give me any advise please? I just need to invest in myself and not my career for once.

Anyone resigned from their TLR?
