ABSTRACT

Guess whose is the first car in the morning in the school car park and the last to depart at night? Who eats their lunch on the run-that’s if they eat at all? How many working professionals have a job description ranging from changing light bulbs through to preparing strategic plans? How many people work with a range of children from neighourhoods of grinding poverty and generous wealth? How many have to endure being verbally (and sometimes physically) abused by parents? But who else experiences the joy of watching children flourish and seeing staff growing in confidence and expertise?
