Thanks for the replies,
SexyGal well done for getting out, I hope you will be happy in your new job.
Saralou, it sounds like a dreadful situation for you to be in. If possible you should get out of there asap!
You could always try an Agency for a while until you find a more suitable permanent post. I Fully understand how these people can knock your confidence, but just keep telling yourself they are the problem not you. I feel so upset for you, especially as you have only been working in childcare/education for a year. There are some very unpleasant people out there but just as is the case with playground Bullies, workplace bullies are usually serverly lacking in competance or natural skill and they try to deflect their inadequacy by bullying other more competent staff. Another reason for bullying is these people are often extremly unhappy in their personal lifes. I am not excusing them infact I feel bullying in any form is deplorable. However do try to remain strong and find yourself a more suitable posistion. You are just starting out and have a lot to offer, so please don't give in to these horrid people. As for the workload we have all at times needed to take work home but if you are having to do it every night it points to bad management and organisational skills, these often go hand in hand with low staff morale and bullying.

So Please Please don't let them win, find yourself another job and be happy!
