Study / University degrees and schools in Poland. Not interested in the proof of my degree? [10]
Hello everyone,
I just started a job in a private language school in London. This is now my 4th job teaching English, my 2nd in England and I worked at 2 schools in Poland. I have a university degree and a celta, but I have come to realise something rather strange, not one school has ever asked for proof of my degree. They all asked to see the celta of course, but it surprises me that they don't seem to be too interested in the degree and all just took my word for it.
Additionally, only one school has asked for a CRB, and that was in England. It makes me wonder what kind of people could actually work in these schools. I'm sure that most teachers are educated to a decent standard and are good citizens in general (not murderers), but it more or less means that a situation could arise where a criminal from the uk could just walk into poland with a celta (sometimes not even a celta!), no degree and a criminal record, and get a job teaching perhaps children.
What is everyone's experience with this? Have you ever been asked for your degree or had a CRB in poland? Or even in england?
