Day 4 - cramp in leg and dizziness. No more sneezing or runny nose. Covid symptoms.

Day 5 - muscle cramp in leg, dizziness and slight shortness of breath on exertion.

I’ve had to cancel my membership to my local independent gym as well as my son’s boxing lessons. Also local milkman and window cleaner. How are local businesses going to survive? #CostOfLivingCrisis #highenergyprices

Anyone else noticed that TA interviews are becoming more like teacher interviews.

I think Andrea Jenkins is missing the the word sorry. Let’s teach children there are better ways to stand up for ourselves than inappropriate gestures.

Not looking forward to today 🥵

Looking at jobs which still involve children and education, so thinking might apply for outreach workers positions. I can’t live on £1000 a month anymore 😞

Oh my gosh what a week.

Don’t get paid enough for this 💩

It’s becoming a regular occurrence to be hit, pushed, strangled, verbal abused in school. Discussion with my mum what jobs are there where you are not physically or verbally abused?

I have worked in schools for over 25 year, my husband has worked in the NHS for over 29 years. We both say the Conservatives are ruining education and health #ToriesDestroyingOurCountry #ToriesOutNow

Did Sir Jake Berry really say just get a higher paid job? Tell you what why don’t I do that and leave the 4 SEN children I support in mainstream with no one to help them 🤷🏻‍♀️

So very true and who’s going to support SEN children.

Don’t forget be a punching bag 😞

Teaching assistants quitting schools for supermarkets because of ‘joke’ wages theguardian.com/education/2022…

Teaching Assistants are the life blood of our schools and must be recognised and valued through proper pay, terms and conditions.

‘Devastating toll’ of attacks on teaching assistants revealed by study theguardian.com/education/2022…

I will be no longer working in education. The pay was not enough to meet my family’s needs so moving on. I am now the fourth TA to leave my school and only one has been replaced. I despair for the children with additional needs who are not having their needs met in mainstream.

It’s the children who will suffer once the TAs look for new employment.
