NIS

It is not a surprise that postings are being deleted from this Forum. Is she (Afaf) worried? Good!

Afaf, power is a wonderful thing, however, it is easily transferred and you would do well to remember that.

Afaf, you have managed to get on the wrong side of more than 50+ teachers and now we speak to hundreds advising them not to go and work for you.

Here are a few ideas: be nice to teachers, treat them well, give them resources, don't put them in accommodation that is next to a building site that starts at 4am, do not withhold holiday pay and bonuses, enforce discipline at your school, understand that as teachers in the International Teaching Community we do talk to each other about our thoughts on how professional a school is run, allow the professional teachers to show you how it should be done, do not think for one second that just because you have money you then can run a school successfully (YOU CAN'T).

This is a message to all teachers who are currently employed at NIS. I can only assume that your August pay has been withheld from you before you left for your Summer Holiday. The reason would probably have been given that this will give you money to come back to.

Withholding this pay is in direct contravention of Qatar Labour Laws!

Have fun Afaf, I've always said that it is very hard to run a school without teachers!!
