Answer to Question #217211 in English for nash

Question

1. Write a paragraph in which you critically evaluate the pressure put on teachers. Keep in mind an inclusive education approach.

“There is pressure that children should be at a certain stage at a certain age at a certain time, for me that just isn’t realistic. This is the pressure that we have, and it is ridiculous pressure as children will get there with good teaching. I don’t think we should be expecting them, as a nation, to all get there by the end of year 2 or by the end of year 1 and if some children need more time then why shouldn’t they have it? The other thing that annoys me is the ELS (Extra Literacy Support) programmes, that children have got until the autumn term or the spring term of Reception and are being told that they are not reading fast enough or that they haven’t made enough progress already and they have only been in Reception for two terms and already it is not enough."

Answer 1

Teachers and nurses are essentially tied, with 46 percent of both categories experiencing severe daily stress. Such reports are comparable to those of other famously demanding jobs, such as physicians and corporate executives. Teachers do much more than only teach academic subjects. They must also control classroom conduct while focusing on assisting children in growing and developing socially in a healthy manner. On top of that, they must collaborate with other adults and keep detailed records of everything they do.

Teachers are required to carry out these responsibilities effectively, even when their pupils experience challenges outside of the classroom, ranging from unmet needs to mental health concerns. Teachers are expected to accomplish more when children have more needs.

If teachers already suffer high levels of professional stress, it's easy to understand how the recent series of tragic school shootings, along with the notion that instructors should arm themselves to defend themselves and their kids, might increase their stress levels even more.
