Absent teachers
What the hell do I do? My whole class is struggling as our teacher is only at school 2 days a week and forgetting things. As a result it looks like we won't pass. Most of the class don't care but due to my subjects I have to pass and do quite well. This is senior year so it counts.
Left out alot as everyone seems to be American so have a different system but general advice is appreciated. Home study isn't an option.

Re: Absent teachers
Talk to the teacher about it. Failing that, talk to the head of their department.

Re: Absent teachers
are you in NSW? i could help you with parts of the HSC syllabus, depending on what subjects you do
anyway, talk to your principal. if that doesnt work, you could try finding notes online.
i used this site quite a lot for chemistry and biology because my teacher was too shit

Re: Absent teachers
At least your teacher isn't going off and having a kid.
My Spanish teacher did that, and now I have this nasty old lady who treats us like we're all snotty five year olds.
I also have a sneaking suspicion that I already know more Spanish than she does... but that's just a hunch.

Re: Absent teachers
What a shit. Is there anyone who did the subject in the previous year or two that could help you? You could get a tutor, but that's money you shouldn't have to spend.
You should try to take it up with the school council. My experience with this is mixed - we managed to get a teacher fired once, but didn't get them to hire substitute teachers for those of us doing VCE subjects. Their practice was to leave the senior class be in a teacher's absence, and this was generally OK. Unless they're off for over a month...
Whatever you try, good luck with it.

The main one is music 1, but the syllabus and notes give you nothing on what work is actually required, hence the problem.
A friend and i went and spoke to our year advisor about it and he's bringing it uop with the principal, justgetting the teacher put on year 8 so we can have the have qualified teacher who hasn't just had a stroke.

Re: Absent teachers
Haha I thought this was going to be more oriented towards Profs who are absent-minded. My Profs always show up to class, but my one Prof can hardly remember his fucking name.
