Disgruntled mob

This disgruntled mob strike at the drop of a hat when even their Labour/Socialist bosom buddies don't want a bar of them and won't support teachers' demands, so seems little justification for all the media hoo-hah!

Salaries range from about $48,000 to $72,000. Department heads, deputy principals and principals get considerably more, as do higher qualifications. Government looks to raise bases to $53,000 and $83,000 progressively by April2021 which seems reasonable.

Striking mid-week (I trust without pay) causes unnecessary disruption to everyone, particularly the kids.

Normally five-day weeks, 8am - 4pm, no weekends, no compulsory after school activities, 12 weeks holiday, statutory holidays, plus teacher-only days, free periods and so forth with class sizes between 23 and 30 should be a breeze.

Why not march at weekends? Teachers seem to apply more energy toward strikes pastime than to teaching.

Old adage 'those who can do those who can't teach” (Shaw) has a ring to it.

Teachers PC 2017 Code of Ethics, approved by teachers causes dissatisfaction, so it is teachers' fault for endorsing this nonsense, cannot discipline kids, address drugs or parental control and current crop of kids could be labelled the ‘druggies decadents' - teachers stress arises from this.
