I've NC for this as possibly outing.
Will try not to drip feed, so here goes.
New boss started in 2 years ago. Lots of changes made and I wasn't too happy but was going on Mat leave so just put up with it. I returned to work Dec 2018. I'm a teacher, in that time 20 staff left (small school, 50 staff in total.)
I didn't go back to the same class and I didn't get one of the clubs I ran at lunchtime back either.
I'm doing ok, but every now and then I get pulled up for something and there is a lot of micro managing going on. I am considered to be pretty good at my job. I care about the children I teach and always do my best for them. At the end of July, a further 17 staff left.
Things weren't settled but I decided to apply for a middle leader position to show my dedication and commitment to my job, this started in sept. I got the promotion after a gruelling interview and now line manage 12 staff.
I work hard, I've built a good team and my department is thriving. The children are happy, safe and ready to learn (it's a SEND school.)
The HT pulled me to one side after a recent observation and said the lesson was outstanding but she is failing me because my lesson objective was wrong (I recieved requires improvement.)
I applied for a new job and I got it. The thing is, I don't want to leave my lovely school. I just can't work for the HT anymore, who is a bully.
Union haven't been much help. The new job is also SEND but it just didn't feel right. I don't know if I should jump or stay? I feel so conflicted.
