I don't think I could do mainstream education in the UK. The standardised tests depress the hell out of me.

Me too! At the end of this academic year I'm re-evaluating the old career path and possibly moving out of mainstream.

i am a primary school teacher. i just think everyone wants to hear about your skills of discipline

i am also not a primary school teacher. class pets are allowed. obviously not lions or bears.

routine and all that blah is all correct. just spout the behaviour management things you have read. and say you are good at maths (no other primary school teacher is)

i got my primary school teaching job by discussing the merits of deprivation as a method of discipline
