THOUGHTS FOR PRESERVICE AND BEGINNING TEACHERS (30)

It is World Teachers’ Day (NT Aust) on the last Friday of every October. May our teachers be blessed and appreciated on this and indeed on every day. They and school support staff are do so much so giving each day. They deserve our plaudits. So too, do our support staff who work hard every day to compliment and support the efforts of our classroom practitioners.

That is more the case in 2019. Year by year by year, teachers are expected to take on more and more and more responsibility for the upbringing of children. Teachers are increasingly in thee community’s debt for all they do and for their willingness to go the extra mile and then some.

So often school staff go unthanked and unappreciated. They cop brickbats but receive few bouquets.

THEY COP MORE AND MORE ABUSE AND THAT SHOULD NOT HAPPEN.

Let’s put this to rights. Our teachers and school staff all deserve our appreciation
