[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ask to be switched. Every schools know who the problematic teachers are and what they teach. No school is going to pro-actively move your kid so ask to have the kid moved and give examples of why.[/quote] This is one of the many reasons teachers burn out. [b]When schools honor these switches, the good teachers end up with huge classes and the “bad” teachers have minuscule rosters.[/b] So the good teachers are taking home twice the papers to grade. They have twice the students to manage and twice the parent emails to answer. So the good teachers burn out at a fast pace, often feeling tons of resentment because they are doing twice the work for the same pay. [/quote] And when they don’t honor these switches, a kid gets behind in math. The schools role is to educate students. Teachers could organize and advocate for the removal of low performing teachers if it’s adversely impacting their workplace, but for some reason I don’t see that effort…?[/quote] Teachers are NOT going to try to get other teachers fired. Do you try on the daily to get your co-workers fired?[/quote]
