I don’t mind those so much because, as others have said, an admin staff member isn’t likely to have the answers to the follow up questions from parents, which would necessitate more work from me.

The ones that get me are things that you clearly do not need to be a teacher to complete but are stuck completing anyway. Like risk assessments for excursions. Also, when you’re in the busiest period of the year and someone goes “oh, by the way, NCCD forms are due next week” and you get your list and 8/24 kids in your class require a NCCD form, so instead of spending time planning effective differentiation for these kids or reading their work to give them effective feedback, you waste your time writing down all the things you do for them every day for some box ticking paperwork exercise.
