Another Teacher Has Left...

Another good teacher has left the centre.

Gerrard has not been easy to handle. Especially after the change in the childcare centre. It was kind of unfair for him to unlearn something that was good, and to relearn. He protested for a while...

For Gerrard, Ms Camille is a nice teacher to have. She is understanding, and at the same time, able to exercise assertion. This is greatly needed, especially after we know that Gerrard has Asperger's Syndrome.

ForGerlyn, when both her teachers left, she refused to enter the Centre on her own for about one or two weeks. Ms Camille and Ms Seet were the familar faces available to coax and soothe her.

I do not know whether was this Gerrard's way of protesting, but there was a good 30-min standoff with him yesterday. Cried, screamed, pushed his siblings, pinched and spat at me. A bad cocktail of all the bad vices, all in that 30 minutes. The last time something like this happened was more than a yr ago, shortly after he changed centre... :(

Too many good teachers has left. I think the Centre should relook into incentives to keep their resources. I think, for a start, they should revise the teachers' pay...
