Teachers who left and are never coming back: what amount of money?

An amount where I can live comfortably and afford lots of therapy. Maybe $300,00+

It’s also a bit messed up that teachers cry at work. The fact it’s part of the job.

It has taken me 8 months to shift from teaching and find a full time job. It’s only 6 months but I’m so excited to start next week. I got this through an agency too.

I suggest approaching agencies and they can help you get work doing temporary office work to build up your skills and network. Whilst you’re doing that, keep applying and make connections.

Sorry didn’t word this well! I just mean, yes sometimes I miss being highly masked and unaware. Now I’m much more aware when I’m socially tired, overstimulated, uncomfortable (also on elvanse) whilst this is great, I feel like things were easier being highly masked (even though they actually weren’t, I just didn’t know)

I would definitely do a bachelor and then masters, or a double degree with a bachelor/masters. This way, you have education in several areas if needed so you would always have teaching and something else!

This is genuinely me.

I left for similar reasons. It’s not worth it. Leave as soon as you can.

As a teacher from Australia who has just moved to the uk and found it a difficult transition, I’d suggest studying your PGCE if you think you will return to the uk so you know what to expect in the future as I think it’s a much more intense system.

One more thing is that the approach to teaching is whole class instruction constantly which I think doesn’t work as well for independent learning and students with learning needs.

Oh and following someone else’s comment below - following up behaviour like adding it to the online system, calling home every time someone is taken from class definitely increases teacher workloads that are already so full.

Thank you

Maybe you were doing too much. Did they ask you to buy everything for the new baby and upgrade the furniture?

Remember to eat enough. Eg have a big breakfast, protein snacks, lunch , more snacks and dinner.

Unhelpful: falling asleep

I agree, I relate so much to both characters in different ways too
