We found out at the end of last week where we are for next year, and I'm a bit worried about my new co-teacher. I've worked with her before, and she's not organised, doesn't do all the work she's supposed to, asks me to do things for her (!) and on top of it is really REALLY patronising, which is a bit rich! Even the children find it too much.
It's to the point where if it's that bad next year I want to say something, but it's hard because there's not something specific. You can't really go to the head and say "they're really patronising and their planning is shit", can you? It just feels really non-specific. I know their co-teacher this year did say something about her being challenging to work with at the end of the year.
Does anyone have any experience of handling this sort of situation? I am excited about my class and my year group, but this is like a giant shadow hanging over it!
