Left my last teaching job as HOD was a psycho. Wasn’t just me, a lot of teachers left due to him. When we spoke to head and SLT we were told that’s just the way he is.
Anyways moved into another job and been there for 2 years. Problem is they are constantly saying they have no money - totally understand this but a lot of us are doing extra roles without the money we should be getting. Main scale teachers are having to justify why they are to be moved up the scale then with enough evidence they still not being moved up. I have never worked in a job where Main scale needs a discussion.
What’s really annoyed me recently is that I’ve made peace with fact my pay won’t go up but they have employed 3 more SLT with huge pay scales. So it’s okay for teachers and support staff to have pay frozen but other people are getting huge wages.
It’s not just the pay situation. I just feel dread going in. I hate working there. I’m taking my annoyance out in my own family. I don’t know what to do. I work part time but even in days off I’m stressing about work. If I leave will I ever get another part time role - that’s what’s keeping me there.
