    Bad working environment as a whole
    The good thingsTeam of teachers were really helpful, not much paperwork
    The challengesPoor management- ratio of children to teacher is incorrect; lacking of staff Teachers welfare not taken care of- teachers are expected to return to work even though really unwell to help out for a few hours Lunch provided but is really terrible. Unable to leave the centre during lunch hour break to buy your own food Principal is not open to any suggestions. Timeline of events can be better Cleanliness of the school is so so terrible

    Work-Life Harmony & Supports Growth & Progression
    The good thingsLittle Paddington is an organisation that is committed in providing work-life harmony & growth opportunities for their employees.
    The challengesMeeting the needs of diverse learners: Each child is unique and has their own learning style and pace, which can be challenging to accommodate in a group setting. However, it also requires me to be creative and flexible in my approach to teaching.

    Extremely caring and nurturing environment
    The good thingsThe team of teachers are very helpful and work very well together.
    The challengesSince it was a new establishment where I started and the school had not reached full capacity, there were new children joining everyday and there were obvious settlement issues so that was a bit of a challenge but achievable.
