Teaching to the test? Why not just give the kids the answers? I know it's not you folks fault. But it's so damn old-fashioned!

I have a face ... just got a text from my (soon to be ex) district officer for Primary School English asking myself and my other two colleagues who are in her district, for our teachers' hours. Can you hear the HELL NO from where you are sitting? A) school was out Nov 9th and B) we're not Malaysian teachers and C) I'm probably almost the only one of my colleagues still in the country!

And yeah, I soooooo want (NOT) to bend over backwards for this woman after she led our project manager to believe that my teachers were complaining about me left right and centre. Whereas, what she was talking about was from the beginning of the year from one particular school with weak and unmotivated teachers. And then, the stupid project manager took that on board as gospel (because the district officer MUST be right of course) and I was forced to relocate or quit. And if I didn't relocate (after grovelling and whimpering I've been a bad bad bad girl and licking his arse), the project manager (British by the way) would make sure he had enough evidence to fire my arse.

Sorry. My blood is boiling.
