This article is a by-product of a qualitative study, which focuses on
understanding the organisation of a teacher's professional life, understanding
the organisation of her school's professional life and understanding her as a
practitioner and as a person. The study was conducted in an ethnographic style
of research. To carry out the investigation a teacher of a primary school of
Laxmipur, Bangladesh was selected purposively. Data for the study were
gathered through shadowing the teacher for three consecutive days, classroom
observations, collection of artefacts, interviews with the teacher, with her
students, informal discussion with the teacher and the Headteacher. The
general findings reveal that the teacher has a huge work-load which poses a
challenge for her. Yet because of her passion for teaching and supports from
her family and school, she never loses interest in teaching.
