Book 16: Chapter 4: Dark Clouds (1)
Morning for the teachers is unexpectedly busy. This school uses dormitories and their workplaces are within campus. In other words they’re close to the school but they have a mountain of things to do. Preparing lessons, verifying contact, and sometimes examining the water quality of the pool. After their individual morning preparations, they then finish their morning assembly and hold a teachers’ meeting.
Being the day of a special exam, the disorderliness is multiplied twice or even thrice over.
Just because they affect the lives of their students, the school does not allow them to make a mistake.
“Regarding this special exam, the thing we teachers must be careful of the most is class intervention. We want to protect our own classes, but please avoid doing things such as accidentally helping them at all times.”
With all 4 homeroom teachers gathered, Ikari-sensei, who was in charge of inspecting this special exam, warned with a harsh expression.
“Um, it’s a bit you know at this stage but can I have a moment?”
“What is your concern Hoshinomiya-sensei?”
“If I recall correctly… last time this test was executed 11 years ago, weren’t the teachers shuffled in order to prevent them from helping their classes? Despite that, why is it that this time the teachers are to watch over their own classes? I think it should be different considering fairness.”
After giving a warning, the school can feel the homeroom teachers’ desires to prevent intervention from reaching their classes.
