It’s been a long week. My first day, Monday was fairly euphoric and I worked hard on my to-do-list.
Set up a new desk, determined to make myself more visible and available to the parents and pupils. A bit revolutionary for some who think I should be shut away in an office!
Tuesday was my first lesson. It was odd to be back at the class face but I enjoyed it. Wednesday, and I was off to an AQA training meeting for the new GCSE. I was exhausted by this and probably shouldn’t have gone in on Thursday but I did.
Friday was difficult but I am hoping that I will increase in strength and confidence soon. It was my birthday though and everyone was so kind and generous.
Over the next week I will be taking up my timetable again and teaching with gusto.
