Any public school teachers out there who have been able to negotiate a better time table after maternity leave....I will be going back to a fragmented timetable (going in 6 days a week)Im saleried 2/3 but will be teaching the equivlent of 3/4 of a timetable when I go back. Im filled with dread about going back, love teaching but have been left feeling jaded by my treatment whilst I was pregnant by the management. Want to extend to 52 weeks - just so I can think about my future......my DD is 15weeks. Have been on SMP only.
