Headmaster was a gossiper - Teacher Intern Challenger School Employee Review

This school does NOT prepare students for the real world. It places them in a bubble, and the curriculum is very dated. The headmaster was a gossiper. My first day there, she was talking badly about the teachers. I walked in one morning to hear her saying something snarky about me. I don't know if she's still there, but the one who was there in 2019 was horrible. As a teacher intern there, the place felt like a prison. The pay is horrible. It seemed like the supervisors wanted you to do something wrong so that they could chastise you. I'm now teaching in a public school and love it! I've never felt more supported by an employer than I do my current principal. Plus, I made under $30,000 at Challenger, and I make over $51,000 as a third-year teacher in the public school district where I teach. My principal also cares about what I think. The supervisors/headmaster/etc. at Challenger don't care what teachers think and don't care about their input. I also didn't like how they squashed creativity in the students. They were trying to produce kids who were all alike. They also only accept students who they know have a chance of succeeding. You won't see this school with SpEd kids. It would mess up their "numbers."
