NQT Year
Prologue
Amy had worked hard and given much up to be where she was today, she'd always been bright, and knew what she wanted to with her life at an early age, she'd aced her exams at school, staying on in sixth form to do her A levels before heading off to university to do a degree in English and teaching.
Things had been hard at times, sometimes she didn't think she was going to make it, there were just too many other temptations out there, life at university had much to offer, academically as well as sociable, for the best part she managed abstain most of the parting that seem to go on around her, not an easy task, as she shared student accommodation with another five young women.
There'd been a few bumps and glitches on her path, she'd had some great nights out at university, put for the most part she'd behaved herself very well, that's if the conduct of her dorm friends was anything to go by, she was tame by their standards.
But for the best part Amy stayed on her path, studied hard and now found herself nearing the end of her goal of being a fully qualified teacher, all that stood in her way now, was this final year that she had to perform in the role of a teacher, an n.q.t year, newly qualified teacher.
Amy had applied for lots of positions at a variety of schools, but with lots of candidates the competition was fierce, she was one of the lucky few to be appointed a position, although it not being ideal, Amy had to accept a job at a rural school right out in the countryside, being the only offer of employment she'd received.
Not being able to drive presented its self as a problem, but once she'd completed her N.Q.T year she'd be a fully-fledged teacher and more job opportunities would open up for her, on accepting the job Amy came to terms with the fact she'd have some long commutes to work on public transport, she had the expensive option of taxi to and from the school.
Or there were a few cheaper options, she could catch a train, but the nearest station were a few miles from the village the rural school was located in, so it would either be a bus or taxi from the station, or she could just catch the bus directly to the small village.
It was more an inconvenience than anything, the school being so rural, she did have plenty of options of transport, but funds were tight, not being fully qualified meant lower wages, so Amy had taken on a part time bar tending position to enhance her income.
The extra money was welcome, but the drain on her time was not, there never seemed to be enough hours in the day, and Amy should've been using that time to mark books and prepare lesson plans for her students at school, she did her best, with what she could, after all things would get better, she was just starting out in life.
The regulars didn't mind her marking books behind the bar when it was quiet, and the landlord turned a blind eye to it as long as all the glasses were washed and tables kept clean, he was pleased with her work, and the fact the pub takings had increased since he hired this sexy little blonde.
The establishment was primarily an older gentlemen's pub, some younger men closer to her own age did frequent it, but normally just for a couple before heading on elsewhere, since Amy had started working they seemed to linger longer, and drink more, as they flirted with foxy barmaid.
With two jobs to juggle, Amy found little time for herself, but from an early age she'd been an active gym member, and truly loved it, she did her best to try an attend at least four days a week, normally for around 45 minutes to an hour workout , before heading back home to her small flat to shower, the other three days she'd liked to go for a run.
Been so active kept her 5'5 tall body in perfect shape, she knew she turns men's heads with her natural shoulder length blonde hair, normally tied back in a ponytail, she'd been blessed in the breast department too, stating puberty earlier she'd been the envy of most girls, and the subject of most guys fantasises as her breast had grown and had blossomed, filling out to a delightful DD cup.
Her body tight and toned, from all her exercise, her stomach flat, showing the faint line of a six pack from all the crunches she'd done in the gym, her legs long and very athletic, her body a true display of womanly perfection.
It was really no wonder Amy had been hired for the teaching job at the school, she knew she'd made an impression on the head teacher when she first met him, hopefully for her academics she thought, and was delighted to be asked back to meet the school board of governs, she'd felt a little award in that meeting, the schools governing body was made up of five older men, elected from the local community.
The school was very small, consisting of three classroom and a small assembly hall that doubled for a canteen at lunch time, and a sports hall for physical education lessons , tall racks with ropes hanging from them could be pulled out from the walls, a large stack of old gym matts piled high in the corner, there were changing area and toiles, there was a small staff room, an office for the head teacher, although why he needed it she was unsure.
The school was that small the head was a teaching head, there were three mixed classes of various ages, there not being enough children of the same age in the rural area to make up a class, so the position was going to be challenging for even the best of teachers, not to mention a NQT, the budget being low thought, they needed to save money.
There was a small staffroom, that had a dirty sink in the corner, kettle sat next to it , with some badly washed cup and a microwave, an antique fridge sat in the corner behind the door, it motor humming away loudly .
Amy had chosen to wear a two-piece suit when she was called to meet the governs, taken the train then caught the bus from the station to the small village, it was a spooky eerie little place, she guessed everyone knew one another, so when the saw a stranger, the all seemed to stop and stare, this make the walk from the bus stop to the school feel very award.
