I bet you thought I was being metaphorical about the economy again. No, I'm talking about myself and the teachers I work with. We are utterly exhausted. The students look fresh faced and unbothered as ever but the staff, like headless chickens, are running themselves ragged trying to save their backsides by making sure the requisite amount of students a) get out of bed and get to school b) actually do any school work when they get there and c) pass the governmental targeted amount of exams.
I'm targetted to bits to be honest with you. I have a minor reprieve next week as it's half term, which means, I can go to work and prepare in the peace and quiet. But tomorrow, when I leave at five o'clock...............I'm going to allow myself a few hours of collapsed relief that I've made it through another half term.
