Sinking ship

A year on and nothing has changed.  It has been the worst working year of my life. The school is held in the grip of a downward spiral which is taking everything and everyone with it.  Pupils are leaving in droves.  Ofsted have been due since September and SLT have been whipping the staff into submission ever since.  Loyal, hard-working teachers are persecuted to breaking point. We are not allowed to voice our true opinions, because they do not matter.  I have to ask people's permission to speak to them at all.  If we do venture an opinion, we are told we are at best wrong and at worst liars.  Pupils are excluded for selling drugs.  Some of them lie down in the corridors and scream.  I understand the impulse completely.
