However, when I returned the next day, none of the work was completed and students told me they watched a movie. How can I ensure this doesn't happen again? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I believe as a teacher you can pick and choose who you want and don't want in the school's internal system. I would notify your school admin about this problem to ensure you don't get this substitute again. I am sorry this happened to you.
