It's just all the paperwork, and the fact that both teachers in my year are NQTs. I did speak to my induction mentor today though and tell her that we needed more support (after she came to say we had gotten our outline planning wrong - well, we did it on our own after a 20 minute INSET, what did she expect?) and hopefully they are putting something in place for us. Who knows what that will look like but fingers crossed!Summer-Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06141455029527492481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102674209649826601.post-3432488285321568882011-09-07T22:02:30.417+01:002011-09-07T22:02:30.417+01:00Do not let this get to you.

In regards to target setting don't worry, you can change them after a couple of weeks as you get to know the kids. Just put today out the way. I still have days I cry and I'm i nmy 5th year having moved from y5 to rec to year 3 (for two years) and now I'm in y4. Don't be afraid to ask for support when needed. Hope tomorrow improves. I would say at the moment get a good reward system in place and work on the behaviour, this will make evrything easier and not sap your energy as much. Good luck!!Take All Chances - Missyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17218156060625819660noreply@blogger.com
