Teachers' Strike!

Why the animosity toward teachers?

They do a difficult job. There's quite a lot of inaccurate information posted previously in this thread about their hours - they do not do the same hours as the pupils, far from it. In addition, the amount of unpaid hours they do take them well beyond the normal working week.
 
I don't think anyone's mentioned yet something that is increasingly a fact of teachers' working lives - Google 'assault on teachers by students uk '. Easy ticket? I think not.

It's far from an easy ride.

I reckon, within 25 years, each classroom will have a social worker present.
 
Firstly, they know the pay scale, holidays, working hours when they chose their career.

No-one forced them into teaching.

They do get more holidays than the average Joe and their starting salary isn't bad. Without experience, they can walk into a 21K job?! My first job was 10.5K....and I worked 45hrs/week. I didn't get 13 weeks holiday, I got 4. Maybe I should've striked too?! Oh no, I realized that was the package on offer when I accepted the job offer!

Sympathy = none at all.
