It culminated into the most mortifying experience. None of the disaster remedies wld hv helped. I cursed every infinitesimal split-second i had to remain at the scene...
My 2-day relief teaching stint would have ended on a high note had they not decided to extend it and then drop another bombshell this morning. I was to relief a P1 form teacher. Gosh....P1, it took everything out from me to get them quiet and sitting at their desk but their silence cld not last more than 10sec. By the last period (P.E. lesson) I was gasping at them to stop running around the hall! Alas when the bell rang for flag-lowering, the principal strolled past, saw me struggling to gather the class, and so decided to bestow her own 5-minute chider. These 5 minutes....cost me dearly. When she was done, the class stampeded down to their classrooms to take their bags. And they HAD to cross the entire school population already assembled at the courtyard. Everyone was looking as they ran to their classrooms, trailed by their teacher(me) and then head back again to join everyone. Teachers, students, HODs, even the whole line of parents who stood by the gate looked on as the "circus" performed.
If I thought that I had made an impression on the first 2 days, at the end of today, I'd become infamous.
No one needed to hear my defense, I believe all of them had cast their silent verdict on the new teacher.
