I’m just feeling a bit 😔 really. I have worked volunteering in my daughter’s school for the past two years, where a job has come up as a L2 Teaching Assistant. I have just recently completing my L2 teaching assistant course and decided to have a go at applying for the position. To be fair, I wasn’t expecting to get very far with my application, as they were asking for experience. I didn’t feel this was something I had much of ( even with the volunteering) but thought the whole application process would be good practice.
Now my gut instinct was right and after submitted my application, have heard nothing....not even a response to say I have been unsuccessful. This is fair enough, as I can only imagine how many applicants they have but what’s getting to me is that I walk past the headteacher most days and she hasn’t even acknowledged my application.. apart from the secretary stating that she had received it. I’m not wanting special treatment but just felt that as I volunteer, I could have least have been acknowledged to be told I’d been unsuccessful. AIBU to have hoped for this?
