Please read and tell me? Should I feel guilty for quitting early and not staying until the end?
I have taken on a role on long term supply. Meant to continue until the end of Christmas. At first it was okay.
But I’ve already grown to hate it and go in and leave with anxiety everyday. I’m a supply on long term, and I know I’m technically an agency worker and they could easily turnaround and say they don’t need me anymore. Can I do the same ?
I have a head of EYFS who is also the assistant head who is just very rude towards me I can almost feel hate, I haven’t done anything. We don’t even talk much, she hardly ever approaches me and when she does speak to me it’s like she doesn’t even want to look me in the eye. It’s strange. (The executive head is lovely by the way). She told me off like a child second week in when we took class for lunch and her tone was so nasty.
Today during ppa I heard from my partner teacher that she critiqued my displays, then the outdoor area. I’m a supply new in, I need guidance, she is picky and likes everything her way so I wouldn’t try or bother to put something up on my own. Why was t anything done about the outdoors before the summer if it needed work, she the assistant head was covering in that class once a week. So she knows the environment.
she also rudely told me off during practice fire drill. Rudely saying “I heard you didn’t do your practice fire drill”. Again I’m new, no one told me, the experienced teacher did not either. I was not even shown where we do go in a fire drill.
My husband is seeing the stress I’m going through and pushing me to quit and move into another role after October half term,
But I feel guilty like I made a commitment until Christmas. Specially feel bad for the students and the families as it’s Autumn term. Yet they will hece a new teacher at Christmas anyway. But I haven’t signed a contract. Also travel is 45 mins to50 mins every morning.
