We really are clutching at straws now.
We've had "trawl staffroom boards to try and argue teachers think their lives are worse than anyone else".Now we're onto misinformation about pay increases
Now flat denial of how managing staff out works because they could that been that good.
There's a hell of a lot of so called experts who are very bitter and over invested in a sector they don't work in.
Dorset You're being disingenuous on claims of constructive dismissal because it's an almost impossible case for any employee to bring (teacher or not). Failing to acknowledge that, or deliberately choosing not to for the sake of having a pop at teachers, doesn't strengthen your argument.
I've seen perfectly good teachers and decent people driven to nervous breakdowns that had them signed off for 6 months only for them to come back, get more pile ons and then they left profession for good.
I've seen staff disappear one day, never come back in, never spoken about again and nobody dares mention what we know is the case: that SLT didn't like being questioned on their latest new initiative and wanted to replace anyone who asked questions with compliant NQTs.
On another thread, I was talking with some non teachers about the rise of certain large MATs. What's interesting is that from the parental description of certain features, I was able to deduce the likely staff body. Two parents said that matched their child's school. I know multiple teachers who have faced managing out and outright bullying in certain regimes, including some excellent school leaders who put the kids first and advocated for parents but we're shoved out the back door because the corporate brand didn't like their style.
Unfortunately, as this thread shows, there are a worrying number of people not in education who are so fixated on shit stirring and mud slinging to suit their own little stories that they would sooner deny the reality of working in education than consider that maybe they dont actualy know what they are talking about.
