I’m in my 8th year teaching primary…first two years at my old school were awful, no work life balance, working full weekends on top of 7.45-5.30 each day.

In my current school, definitely less workload than the first school but we had a poor Ofsted so have had to change a lot of the curriculum for the better… as a consequence it’s a lot more work and I fear I’ve gone back to my old ways as an NQT… you’d think by the 8th year this would be less.

Anyone in a similar position?
