The decision whether to laugh or cry largely depends upon your location
relative to the system.
If you are inside the system - then crying is the only sane reaction. There
is no need to write scripts and waste money on filming the actors: place a
candid camera in every class of any school and a couple more in the
teachers' room - then just splice the footage, and you get the same effect
at a fraction of the cost.
If you are outside, you can afford a laugh. I laughed - but I must confess
that while watching, I could still feel the pain, the shame and the
humiliation of having to go through similar events almost every day of my
teaching career that lasted for over 13 years and, luckily, came to an end
four years ago when I realized I could take it no more. I can honestly say
that ANY job is better than being a teacher in the system that treats
teachers the way the skit shows.
I wish those of you who can escape this system to do so as soon as you can.
To the rest of you - those who cannot and/or who believe that their place is
in the system no matter what - I wish endurance.
[No mailing list would ever publish the things I wish to the principals of
the schools I had the dubious pleasure of working for, or to the ministry
policy-makers...]
Happy viewing -
Lev
