Very interesting posts on School of Life. I am in agreement with the above post.

My experience was initially very good. From the beginning my work received high praise. I was a dedicated and hard-working employee in a school that is well-known for the remarkable demands it places on its teachers. But everything changed after I informed administrative staff of my pregnancy. The working environment became hostile and basically intolerable. I was prepared to resign from my position when I was informed by the other teachers that it would not be advisable for me to do so. It was explained to me that no one resigns from School of Life, one should be fired instead. To be honest I was in fear of angering the owner due to her position and influence. So I took the advice and did not resign. Thankfully it did not take long...once administration learned of my intention (to resign), I was fired a day later. I discovered most teachers are let go in a similar manner.

As for me, I remain very proud of my extensive life experience. My work history dates back over a period of 20 years, with the last six years spent in Amman. However, I consider my experience with the School of Life as my first set back. It is the first and only time I have been fired from a job. I found it a depressing and humiliating experience, and I would not wish it on anyone.
