I got it bad yesterday too. From L. A few weeks ago, some of my band students came up to me in desperation as they were being harrassed by their English teacher, L, to join Drama Club. I told the students they need not worry and all they needed to say was that I would not allow them to be transferred over.

I thought that was the end of the story.

Over lunch yesterday, Y told me that L was going to give me a treat. I asked why. Then L said "You have alot of talents in your band..." My first reply was a "My answer is no, I will not release these students." I explained thewhole situation to him and he knodded his head as if he understood. Then he said that he would then go and tell the principal that he cannot get talents and so he cannot set up an item for competition next year. I told him that that was the best and the correct thing to do. I mean, if you are unable to take part in the competition, then you jolly well don't. Stop absconding students from other CCAs and pushing these students into a corner!

I thought that was the end of it.

During band practice, a couple of these students came to me to tell me that they were told that they had no choice and that their names would be submitted to the Principal for them to join the Drama club. I was SO furious!! When I went back to the staffroom, Sam told me that that was exactly what L said he would do during the Drama meeting they had earlier. HOW dishonest can one get?! And to think, this person is a TEACHER. Someone whom the school intends to promote to be an HOD!! Fucking no manners!!!!

So I went to see my Principal to see what his opinion of the entire thing was.

got to blog later....going for contact time now.

Mood : pissed.
