Today is one of my last Fridays (if not the last Friday) that I have off school. I’ve been told that my interview for my job will be next week, when the rest of the interviews are happening (a lot of staff have left recently). Well, I was told after some prodding from me.
Me: Have I got an interview yet?
Headteacher: Oh, I’m not even sure you’re on the list.
Me: Hmm. Well can I be put on the list?
Thanks, headteacher. Something tells me that the job of music teacher/co-ordinator (although if music co-ordinator is to be my job title then surely I deserve a slightly larger salary?) isn’t as highly valued as it should be.
So I’ve been put on the list, hopefully. And I’ll have an interview early next week, hopefully. I am not expecting the interview to be a proper interview. They want me to stay. It will be a formality.
What I’m not sure about however is whether they will be paying me over the summer holiday. They really should do, as that is the whole reason why I’ve had to apply for my own job, to make it “proper”. Otherwise I’d be going back in September as an official supply teacher, not on a contract. I specifically made clear my desire to be a full-time, contracted, paid-over-summer teacher.
I really hope it happens.
