Do school teachers get along with their colleagues at the school they teach at?

Answer 1

I'd say it's like any other working/living environment. You'll have people who get along, other who merely tolerate one another, and some who would rather not be in the same room. I would think there is a certain amount of professional courtesy among them though.

Answer 3

I would think that it's the same for any job: you get along with some of your colleagues and not with others. In my experience, though, those who don't get along tend to remain civil publicly and find ways to achieve their goals whether they get along with their colleagues or not.

Answer 4

Answer 5

Answer 6

I would say most of them. There's always a few that cause problems and they don't stay working at the school for long.

Answer 7

not all of them but most
