In my opinion,I have found that large Childcare Corporations such as Chesterbrook Academy/Nobel Learning Communities are too big to be concerned about each individual school in their company. I have worked for both kinds. The District Managers(PA especially) and above do not know what is happening in their classrooms good or bad. They only see what is on paper as far as Profit or loss for each school. The positions above the Directors never enter the classrooms. They say they do but, they don't. There are so many things overlooked in these schools, praise or improvments, because everyone at the top are too removed from the children/classrooms. I strongly suggest that if you are a Teacher looking for a job or a Parent looking for a school, go to a small owned school. And ask to meet the person above the Director if there is one. If it is their own buisness, chances are they will put their "all" into it just as the "good" Teachers and Directors do. Look for the ones that "live" for the children. The ones that are there for a reason...not just to collect a paycheck! Name: Email: Subject
