This week, Jenny and Roxy discuss the holidays. We begin with a conversation on the importance of taking care of oneself during term time, not pushing to make it to the holidays and then collapse from exhaustion. We also consider the difficulties of holidays for supply teachers and those on fixed term contracts whilst also pointing to opportunities the holidays can bring. We look at the perception of summer holidays and highlight, that for some, a long holiday can be a period of isolation. Our show notes provide further support on this matter.
Roxy provides this week’s Break-time Banter, we hear some hilarious stories from other teachers whilst this week’s Get In The Bin comes from Jenny who gets frustrated at those that say “teachers get too many holidays”.
