When pupils take their examinations, their teachers feel stress. Why? Some reasons are:
1)Teachers need to complete setting and printing the entire level examination papers on time.
2) Teachers need to rush to complete all examinable topics and units.
3) Teachers need to give out as many practices as possible.
4)Teachers need to return all papers for revision but there are just too many to finish marking.
5) Teachers worry that pupils may not have absorbed all that they need for exams during lessons
6) Teachers worry that pupils may be careless during examinations
7) Teacher worry if they can complete marking the entire level examination papers and return for checking before school closes.

When the papers are marked and returned:
1) Teachers worry if there are marking errors and parents complain.
2) When pupils fail, teachers feel sad and demoralised, as if they had not done their job well.
3) When pupils fail, teachers worry about parents complain again
4) When pupils don't do as well as other classes, teachers worry again about parents discussing and complaining again.
5) When pupils don't do as well as other classes, teachers have to answer to principal too.... so scary...
6)When pupils don't do well, teacher worry that pupils may give up on the subject.

How come parents don't praise teachers when children do well but complain when their children do badly?

Joys of examination... (are there any?)
There will only be rejoicing when all pupils do well for examinations but with our VERY difficult paper, only a small number will rejoice.
