Some of the students were ESE and are allowed extra time on their exams as their accommodation. One of the teachers who was proctoring with me in the afternoon session was saying that she is not staying after school to continue proctoring and that the students need to submit their test when time is up. The head of the ESE department was going back and forth with her saying she is not allowed to deny these students accommodations. How would you deal with a co-worker like this? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) It sounds like this situation in particular was already being addressed by the head of the ESE department. However, if it was just the two of you proctoring or this happened with another co-worker in a different situation, I would first kindly address it with the teacher directly, explaining that the students have accommodations for a reason. If the teacher was still refusing, it would need to be reported to administration so that it could be appropriately addressed and ensure the students' accommodations are met.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: This solution would be the best method to approach the situation as it incorporates a friendly response to the co-workers shortcomings.
