Make my final teaching placement my best yet (read all 3 entries…)
yeeeessss!! 3 days ago

I’m finished!! My report was great too so I guess even though it has been a mighty tough placement as in demanding kids…I have still gone out on the high I wanted to go out on!

I am pleased with how it has gone and although the kids were tough the school was good and the staff were amazing! It’s the first time I have felt like part of the teaching staff rather than the student!

I was really hoping to get some supply there til I get sorted with a teaching job..and the school have said that they will have me back, but my stupid CRB needs to be updated so not sure if it’s going to be possible before Christmas but I have my fingers crossed!

I should be thrilled that it’s all over but to be honest I’m really not! I’m sort of feeling that I have worked hard and have nothing to show for it as I have no teaching job at the minute due to lack of jobs! I’ll get there though – the hard part is over!!

Giving up! 1 week ago

I have decided that I actually don’t want to do this! No matter how I feel about everything that has happened, writing this would mean I was just doing it with a goal of hurting people, which would make me just as bad! I don’t want to do this and I want to move on rather than be bitter so I have decided not to do this!

OH MY GOD! 2 weeks ago

What a crappy day! I had 2 observations today and they were a nightmare! My first maths lesson wasn’t too bad but my Literacy was shocking! I actually had 2 kids fighting in my lessons! ARGH! My class teacher claimed that it wasn’t too bad but I’m soo not convinced!

Problem is…I really want to finish off on a good-outstanding level. I’ve been told that I’m working at good at the minute…but I feel like I’m constantly battling with the behaviour and I don’t actually get around to the teaching part because I’m constantly going at the behaviour.

They really are the hardest class that I’ve had on placement as they are so demanding but I guess I’m dealing with it…I just don’t feel like I am sometimes. Apparantly every teacher feels like that though! I suppose every teacher has some bad days as kids are so unpredictable so I just have to get on with it and hope tomorrow is better
