I think I've hit the wall.
I'm so done with the ridiculous expectations and pressures on the kids (I'm mixed Y5&Y6).
Having to 'evidence' things all the bloody time as I'm not trusted to just do my job.
All that utterly stupid SPAG that we have to force-feed Y6 knowing full-well that it'll be forgotten by Sept.
The constant scrutiny and threat of Ofsted at any moment.
Constantly chasing our tails to cover a curriculum that everyone knows we can't possibly cover. Unless there were 10 hours a day..
I'm not sure that even the good stuff like working with the children is worth it any more. And I work in a lovely school with a decent SLT. God help colleagues in schools with unsupportive SLT.
It's the system itself - it's not fit for purpose.
I think I just need to rant. And, possibly a silly question, but is anyone else feeling like this?!!!
Apart from never voting Tory, what else can we do?!!
