More and more teachers are working over the weekend and they don’t get any money for it.

Isn’t that crazy?

Are they stupid or have they just been indoctrinated?

I was a teacher for 12 years and I was working for free over the weekends.

Now I am a life coach for children and I work when I like, for what I like and where I like and actually with who I like.

Check out these four things to do when setting up a business for young people if you want to escape the broken system.

05/10/2026

I taught for 12 years. I loved the kids. But I ignored every one of these signs for far too long. Don’t make my mistake.

1. Sunday night feels like a countdown.
It starts around 4pm. That tight chest. The knot in your stomach. You’re physically at home, but mentally you’re already in Monday’s staff briefing. When your weekend ends a full day early, every single week, your body is telling you something your mind won’t admit.

2. You’re working 10+ hour days and nobody’s paying for it.
In at 7. Out at 5. Then another two hours at the kitchen table. Add that up over a year and you’ve given away months of your life for free. Ask yourself this: would you accept that deal from any other employer? So why are you accepting it now?

3. Your own family gets what’s left of you.
You spend all day pouring into other people’s children, then come home with nothing left for your own. “Not now, I’ve got marking.” How many times have they heard that? Your kids don’t need a perfect parent. They need a present one. And they’re only little once.

4. Leadership has stopped leading and started policing.
Learning walks that feel like inspections. Data drops that matter more than the child in front of you. Being made to feel like a problem for asking a simple question. Toxic leadership doesn’t just drain your energy. It slowly convinces you that you’re not good enough. You are. The environment isn’t.

5. You can’t remember why you started.
You went into teaching to change lives. To be that one adult a child remembers forever. Now? You’re just trying to survive until half term. That spark didn’t disappear because you stopped caring. It disappeared because the system buried it.

Here’s the truth nobody tells you: leaving teaching doesn’t mean leaving children behind. Your skills, your empathy, your ability to see what a child really needs... that’s exactly what the world is crying out for. Just not inside four walls and a timetable.

If you read this nodding along, you don’t need another INSET day. You need a way out.

Comment “KIDCOACH” and I’ll show you what’s possible. 👇

“I absolutely love teaching. I just hate being a teacher.”Every teacher reading that just felt it in their chest. Becaus...

“I absolutely love teaching. I just hate being a teacher.”

Every teacher reading that just felt it in their chest. Because the part I still love, completely, is the students.

Whenever a teacher says this out loud, someone always replies “then leave.” But that response misses the point entirely. We don’t want to leave teaching. We feel like the job has left us no other option.

Walking away from something you love, because the system wrapped around it has become too much, is never a simple decision.

Teachers aren’t leaving because they stopped caring. They’re leaving because they cared for years, while being asked to carry more and more, with less and less support.

So maybe the question isn’t “why do teachers keep quitting?”

Maybe it’s “why do we make it this hard for good teachers to stay?”

If you’re a teacher who feels exactly this, comment the word KID COACH and I’ll show you what I did after 12 years in the classroom.

Could a change in the education system have prevented this?

04/10/2026

The education system has been selling you a story. Here is what it got wrong.

1. “You’ll always have job security.”
Leadership changes overnight and budgets disappear just as fast. That is not security. That is borrowed time.
2. “A steady paycheck means stability.”
When that paycheck costs you your health and your peace of mind, it is not steady. It is silencing you.
3. “Teaching is a safe career.”
Safe careers do not come with burnout, chronic anxiety, and lying awake at 2am thinking about tomorrow’s lesson.
4. “Climbing the ladder brings freedom.”
More responsibility. Less time. Less life. Freedom is not a job title. It is having control over your own days.
5. “It is too risky to leave.”
The real risk is spending another decade in a place that is slowly making you smaller.
6. “At least it is stable.”
There is a difference between stability and being stuck. One supports you. The other just keeps you quiet.

If you have been teaching for over eight years and you are giving everything you have got while feeling underpaid, undervalued, and invisible then I need you to know something.

There is a life after teaching. A good one.

Twelve years ago I discovered children’s life coaching and it changed everything for me.

If you are a teacher, you already have every skill you need. If you want more freedom, more impact, more income, and more time with the people who matter most, send me a comment below with the word KIDCOACH and I will show you exactly how I made the transition.

Imagine quitting a teaching job after working 8 to 12 hours over the weekend unpaid and feeling unappreciated and burnt out to only working 8 to 12 hours a week for the same salary?

Pretty cool right?

Every teacher has it in them.

8 things teachers have normalised that no other job would accept 👇

1. Working 20+ extra hours a week… for free

Teachers are among the highest unpaid overtime workers in the UK.

👉 Many work 50+ hours a week
👉 Some estimate 20-26 unpaid hours every single week

“Imagine asking any other profession to work an extra 3 days… unpaid.”

⸻

2. Taking work home every night

Most jobs end when you leave the building.

Teaching just changes location.

👉 Marking
👉 Planning
👉 Parent emails
👉 Data tracking

“Teachers don’t finish work. They just relocate it.”

⸻

3. Dreading Monday from Sunday afternoon

The Sunday Scaries are practically part of the job description.

👉 Rehearsing behaviour plans
👉 Bracing for meetings
👉 Staring down the workload

“Most people enjoy their Sunday. Teachers brace for impact.”

⸻

4. Buying classroom supplies with their own money

Pens. Glue sticks. Rewards. Displays. Snacks. Even printer paper.

“No office worker buys stationery for 30 people out of their own salary.”

⸻

5. Answering emails at 9pm

Parents email at 7pm, 9pm and all weekend.

And teachers feel the pressure to reply.

“Somewhere along the way, teachers became customer service without signing up for it.”

⸻

6. Being judged for leaving on time

In too many schools:

👉 Leave at 3:30 = “not committed”
👉 Stay till 6pm = “dedicated”

“In any other job, leaving on time means your work is done.”

⸻

7. Holding 30+ people up emotionally, every day

Anxiety. Trauma. Family breakdowns. Behaviour. Mental health struggles.

Teachers absorb all of it.

“Most jobs don’t ask you to regulate 30 humans at once.”

⸻

8. Being watched like you’re under surveillance

Drop-ins. Learning walks. Observations.

“Imagine your boss randomly standing at your desk every week, clipboard in hand.”

⸻

Sick and tired of all of this?

I was too. 11 years ago I walked out of the classroom and became a children’s life coach.
