Hi guys, just looking for advice.

I am a first year teacher, and I teach older students. I was falsely accused of some dangerous activities, as well as insulted and made out to be incompetent.

The investigation is still ongoing, but the concensus is that the child (who is very high needs) was lying, and the advice given to me is to let them get on with it, basically.

Even if it's false, I'm really struggling with moving forward from this. I liked the student and thought they were very hard working, and I'm a bit heartbroken.

I genuinely thought I was a great teacher! I just don't want to go to work today.

Any advice?
