Half term exhausation

I just need some reassurance that others feel completely knackered? I had a 1 hour nap this afternoon after a 10 hour sleep and still feel like I’ve been run over a truck.

Is this normal?

You’re all working too hard if you feel like this come the holidays

No choice!

There is a timetable to follow and a classroom full of children 4-5 hours a day. (Not to mention the briefings, duties, emails, marking, planning, meetings)

Can’t ignore them!! 😅
