About this listen
Apparently, we just colour in all day.
That’s the perception - and it’s doing serious damage. Because when people think teaching is easy, they also think we don’t deserve fair pay, resources, or even respect. And worst of all? Some teachers start to believe it too.
In this episode, we get fired up about the myths around teacher pay, the culture of martyrdom, and the manipulation tactics that convince educators they should feel guilty for asking for a raise.
We talk about:
- The nonsense around “fully funded” pay rises 🧾
- How unions should be fighting harder (and louder) 📢
- Why it’s not your fault if your TA gets cut ✂️
- And what happens when teachers are too polite to say no 🙅♀️
There’s also a £37 billion app that no one used, some daffodils bought out of sheer guilt, and a classroom wall so mouldy it had to be hidden behind a giant smiley face.
If you’ve ever bought your own laminating pouches, stayed late to fix a display, or been told “it’s not about the money” - this one’s going to hit home.
