@hayleyf that is bad hun well hope you sort it so you can start your new job and enjoy it xxx

@michellewiggins1985, my sister is a primary teacher too, I’m secondary. For teaching staff, it’s half a term notice minimum and you can leave at Christmas, Easter or the summer usually

@hayleyf primary x

@michellewiggins1985, yes, what does your step sister teach? Primary or secondary?x

@hayleyf have they paid your maternity?

@michellewiggins1985, I have checked with my unions as well but thanks

@hayleyf I can't see that is right most employment is a month notice never hear of that stuff ur saying will ask my step sister as she is a teacher x

@michellewiggins1985, yup! So got my hands tied for a while x

@hayleyf omg that is rubbish are they paying your maternity then xx

@michellewiggins1985, doesn’t works that way in teaching. I have to go back for at least 13 weeks so that I don’t have to pay my maternity money back. There are also only certain times of the a academic year that you can leave (unless you are released) and teachers have to give a terms notices...so many rules x

@hayleyf omg surely u only have to give a months notice xx

@michellewiggins1985, tried to tell them I have a new job and see of they will release me early. My headteacher is refusing to discuss it with me x

@hayleyf what's up? Xx

Thats that school for you, glad you have a new job and youre out of there xx

@megan-leigh, same here! I work in quite a rough school with violent kids as well x

They never even did a risk assessment on me or anything z

@megan-leigh, I’m a teacher, they made my life hell before and still are while I’m off x

@hayleyf I was a waitress/cleaner/potwasher. I did a lot more as well x

@megan-leigh, what were they doing?x

I'm pregnant and have had to leave work because of how they started treating me. All they were causing me was an insane amount of stress x
