Is Year 7 Teaching a Hidden Gauntlet?

Let me confess: Year 7 nearly swept me off my feet—and not in a good way. Is it just me, or does this year sneak up with a special kind of exhaustion? I still show up, lessons happen, kids learn (I think?), but my spark feels dimmed. Gone are the days when I’d hunt for new lesson ideas or geek out over classroom tech. Now, I’m scrolling job boards, wondering if a change of scenery is the magic fix. Is this the infamous mid-career slump, or am I missing some secret sauce? Maybe you’ve cracked the code, or maybe you’re slogging through the same fog. Drop your wisdom—or your woes—in the comments. Maybe together, we’ll stumble upon a solution that isn’t just waiting for summer break. 🌪️😅 #TeachingJourney #Year7Struggles #EducatorLife #Education
