Jailer or Teacher

Having just embarked on a new module at Roehampton Uni, International Perspective in Profession Practice in Education (IPPPE), we were encouraged to be reflective about our teaching jobs. One lady described herself as being a 'gate keeper'! who occasionally gets to teach. Others felt swamped under with paper work or isolated from other teachers and also unable to reflect on their effectiveness. Some even blamed colleagues for avoiding collaborating. However most felt that the curriculum was far too restrictive to be able to experiment much. My thoughts or reflections of this is that with out the curriculum we could not have any standardization... and of course it would be the students that suffer...
