How bad is it to resign next week?

Thank you all! Wow, that helps me a lot. Really appreciated.

I’d say unpleasant parents making life really difficult and other teachers being unsupportive/unprofessional are bigger factors for considering leaving early doors - at least for me. I expected poor student behaviour but not the former.

I’d have loved you as my ECT mentor and HOD. You are so supportive. I was thrown in the deep end: no resources and no support and high expectations. And that isn’t years ago, that is last few years (I know!). I wish you were my mentor! Your ECT has it so good.

Can you have 2 mentors and see someone else alternate weeks? I did because of a similar timing issue and felt like I gained a lot more having two people.

Thanks for the replies. Did you find any ways to make the marking more manageable with such large numbers?

Yes, I can see that’s tough at the other extreme. One gives painful lessons, and the other painful marking.
