    Literally happened to me. I went back to my primary school for work experience - I had the incredible pleasure of being placed with a teacher who had inspired me a lot as a younger kid.

    I’ll never forget. One time at lunch, she just sat down with me on duty and said in the most soul deep tired voice I’ve heard “is this what you want?”. Don’t think she said a word after. Woke me right up.

    It’s criminal what we’ve done to our education system.

      That is what makes it so terrible.

      Great, inspiring teachers literally change people’s lives and our governments treat them like dirt.
