Yes, she wanted us to be targeted in regard to the extra coaching we were giving our weak-progress students because we probably couldn’t save anyone.
I think we don’t live in extreme times such as COVID, so there is little need to frame our situation in terms of triage. I am flabbergasted that a school leader — supposedly nurturing of the students under her charge — would think of us as expendable resources.
Maybe that’s why she is a vice-principal and I’m not haha.
But I’m not sure that i would want to pay the price to reach her level anyway.
I don’t mind standardised exams. There is a dopamine rush that I relish when I guide my students to game the system haha. But it seems that my pedagogical decisions will be scrutinised this year — I don’t like the feeling of being placed under the microscope
