About this listen
This book is about my experiences in schools (and now academies which were formerly schools but run differently), as well as different teachers I have worked with, and how this all impacts the pupils we teach. It is an honest account revealing what it is like to be an aspirational teacher, and the difficulties we really find in this profession, with unprofessionalism often rife, senior leaders not in control and pupil behaviour varying from excellent to dangerous and often a challenge to manage. All of this in schools that parents hold in high esteem. All names in this book (including mine) have been changed to protect the innocent. And guilty. If you think you have heard of a particular incidence in this book, then I am not surprised; they probably happen hundreds of times each year in our schools. Part I details all of the events up to Day 1 of teaching in the classroom, including the training, teacher training in different schools, and finding a job.
