The saying “we spend 90% of our time on 10% of our students” came up again.
And my response was different this time.
Every other time I’ve been at a workshop, or a session, or a meeting and this statement came up I felt anger growing. It gave my frustration a place to hang. What have I been doing wasting so much time on so few? There certainly must be something be wrong if things are not more equal. Why should the minority demand such a large amount of my time and effort.
