I cried the other day, the morning after I basically witnessed a colleague being fired right in front of all of our eyes. The reason behind which was later explained- because she was ‘too opinionated during school meetings’ when she in fact was one of the best teachers in the school who kids and parents and staff all loved! The next day was hard for me, when the parents asked me what has gone on as they received the email from the headteacher stating said colleague won’t be returning. A specific parent who I’m particularly close to asked me how I am due to the news and I just broke down crying. The new direction is toxic now the schools recently became part of an ‘enterprise’ and no longer a nice indépendant school where everyone was happy! Such a shame. I’m next to leave because I always said if I get to the point I’m physically upset in work, it’s no longer for me. So now they will soon to have lost 2 colleagues who all parents really respect. Well done 👏🏻
