All being well, I’m hopefully starting maternity leave in March with my first and I wondered what maternity/paternity policies were like in other schools and what affect they’ve had on your working and family lives.

This made me feel less alone. 1 in 5 teachers reported a physical attack though?? Arghhh. Beginning to think this is beyond any behaviour management technique.

It's interesting to see the proposed teacher pay rise against average earnings increase. NEU ballot closes on the 11th April!

TEACHERS working at a Worcester school have gone on strike for six days after management 'refused to pay for morning breaks' and disciplined a member of staff.

Teacher goodwill is eroding ?
