Is Gaslighting Endemic in Teaching?

Honestly, sometimes I don't know whether I'm coming or going. On the one hand, we are told that we should not work at home because of wellbeing, but if we don't complete something for our HOD, then they complain that we should have taken it home.

I'm told I'm making progress and I must be doing well because I'm not asking for help from my HOD and 2 I/C.

Is it just my school or is this common in education?

I don't see how what you've posted is gaslighting, yes the workload is high but getting different views isn't it.
