Also want to say how refreshing it is to read a post on here that shows such professionalism. From the outlining of course objectives and expectations, to consistent monitoring of attendance and proactive handling of potentially failing students. It's reassuring to see somebody else on these boards who has a sense of pride in what they do and takes their role as an educator seriously, not just another person moaning about their students and counting the minutes until they're out of their classroom.

I also apologise in advance for any and all insults or insinuations that come your way because I like and agree with what you posted!
