Use Your Head.

Welcome back!
Feel free to suggest topics for me to write about using the Suggestions? tab to the right or use Formspring to ask me random stuff. Check Doug's FAQ first!

Use your head (small)

I don’t know whether laughter’s an appropriate response to the image on the left (click to enlarge).

Having resigned from my previous school (2 years ago now) due to stress, I know what it can be like.

Nice lampoon of the UK government’s campaign to encourage more people to train as teachers, though… :-p

Thanks for the link, sister-in-law Laura! :-D

Thanks for sharing. Sad but true.

I did just that when teaching at an exceedingly ‘challenging’ comprehensive began to ruin my home life and affect my young children. An easy choice to make actually! I chose to be a Mum and a teacher – Kids are only young once and I can be a teacher anyday.
However, I was soon a teacher again – and much happier and less stressed than I was. I guess it depends on where and who you teach. And how you’re managed too – still feel undervalued and put upon at times >:oI
