- Not having the mad rush that is the start of term. Instead a more sedate beginning where you may still be travelling back from your holiday.
- Needing to write "pupils should not be sent on errands such as buying cigarettes or ganja".
- Examining pupils in a language they can not speak.
- Leaving your classroom to greet a visitor for the whole lesson.
- Having a class comprised of two different year groups in your room and teaching them entirely separate topics. One at a time.
- A child having work in their book that they have written but are completely unable to read.
- Trying to improve the teaching in an area where around 50% of the teachers are untrained and unqualified and don't earn enough money a month to buy a bag of rice.
