Id want to know where he was T most schools close for cleaning at 5pm and don't reopen until 8am. Many now reopen after 6pm for other activities but the teachers are long gone.

Re: Teachers working long hours

I'm wondering why we didn't hear from Rhian in this thread? She is our resident schoolteacher and it would be nice to hear her views on the subject maybe?
Come on Rhian...thoughts?

I did tell her about it, Floydy, perhaps the children have put her in detention!

Hmmm I find it strange, Tabby.
Teaching after all is Rhian's subject

Re: Teachers working long hours

I remember Infant & Junior schools were both fine, and interesting places to go to.

Way back then, they were mainly Ladies & knew how to treat the kids (No sexism intended) - the learning of the tables (up to twelve times) went very well.

The Senior School was very different. I don't remember a single teacher who had a real welcoming, charming personality.

Their qualifications were always to the fore in any notices, Shame there was no mention of qualifications in charm & Rapport.

Were they working long hours? If they were I never saw anywhere where it was visible.

Oddly, when I took myself back into being further educated, at Colleges, those colleges had plenty of chatty, friendly, characters who captured the interest and built on it.

Sorry Rhian. Sorry to disturb you, that answers the question anyway - teachers deserve every penny as they work such long hours
I guess we reply to which threads tickle our fancy
