Fountain School Zhuhai- NO ! NO ! And NO ! Again .

Teachers looking for a school in Zhuhai China ? Do yourself a big favour , avoid Fountain School like the plague. Since February 2004 out of a total of 18teachers , 16 have resigned , been fired , or done a midnight runner . I′m one of the two who made it to the end of their contract. The resignations were for a mixture of personal reasons , better jobs to go to , being told ′ resign or get fired ′, or just plain disgust at the way the school was being run. All the above teachers are experienced , many with a string of qualifications to their name .So they weren′t backpack bozos who couldn′t teach their way out of a paper bag .  In the time I was there , the school consistently twisted and interpreted the contract ( ha ! Burst of mirthless, ironic laughter there at the use of the " c " word ) to their benefit and frequently added/changed clauses .  I′m extremely annoyed with the disgraceful way many of the teachers were treated . For goodness sake do yourself and the teaching profession a big favour , STAY AWAY FROM THIS SCHOOL !
