There is a stark difference between a regular teacher and a substitute teacher. You can tell by their attitudes.
The first big blow to your esteem is the low salary (4500 per month) which is simply unbelievable. You are expected to be at par as per your qualification , work equally hard and paint an equally bright smile when paid half of the regular salary !! Which is quite silly.
And yes, irrespective of the good performance of your class , which is quite comparable to the 'regular teacher - taught' classes, if you are called back to the school, you are expected to give yet another demonstration of your teaching skills. Which is quite insulting.
Are the teachers being exploited because of the sheer strength of their number ? There are so many who are good and overqualified but are still dreaming of getting the VI pay commission implemented. The heads make it seem as if their own personal purses are being pinched. Whereas all the while it is the parent's purse which is getting the pinches.
