Currently, i am working at an Australian school located in Singapore at Toa Payoh. hahah.. so convenient.. but have to be there at 8am. Quite early. haha.. Every thing is going to end on 7 December! My Last day there! Looking forward to it. haha.. coz working there is very boring.
.
Are all Australians so friendly? Their friendliness is making me look like a unfriendly person. hehe.. coz i too quiet towards them. Think they feel that i am very cold. haha.. But i think everything is okie... i am trying to speak their language... proper english with Enthusiasm on the tone and the words used. Must use words like.. Well Done.. Wonderful.. Thats Beautiful.. Lovely.. hahahaha... so hard for me to say them.
.
My job scope... is just to help the headmistress type things that she wants me to type. Sometimes i feel that their systems is not efficient and has a serious lack of communication among the headmistress and all the teachers. Coz at this time of the year, everyone is preparing the child's final report card. I don't see the teachers and headmistress having discussion or meetings to make a standard for the performance of the child and their grades to ensure that everything is fair.
.
I had amended parts of the report card format and None of the teachers know about it. Till today... i told them about the changes to the word document. They said that nobody told them about anything. Sometimes, i feel that the headmistress is quite selfish. How can she just think about her own master copy and forget about informing the teachers. They are the ones responsible to grade the children. =___=
.
She should have just finalise the final report card first before releasing it to the teachers and arranged some meetings for her and the teachers to communicate on the standard for grading the children. So much double work done. One of the teachers have to redo some little parts of the report coz of this lack of communication.
.
Not that the headmistress have nothing to do. She is a very busy person. She really have a lot of work to do. Including communicating with the students... the Parents.. (chit chat) which is needed to keep a positive relationship on the parents helper side too.. and communicating with many other ppl. Just need to make small meetings to talk to the teachers is not hard at all for her. Plus planning for each level's curriculum and grading indicators. haha.. Still got a lot of other work... and thats a lot of things to do. Think she needs to plan her work too... everything is all over her desk.
.
I think that there's some school politics and gossip between the teachers. weird...
