Nathan says:

Wow. That's a lot of time. Teachers sure should get paid more.

Nathan says:

I wonder whether posting a few comments here will encourage other people to join the conversation.

Amy says:

I reckon you should keep these stats and every time some letter writes in whinging about teachers getting '10 weeks holidays and only working 6 hours a day' you can reply with this…

(I find commenting on other people's blogs makes them more inclined to comment Nathan!)

queenstuss says:

No, Amy, teachers really do have 10 weeks holidays (I think it might be 12 at my husband's school) and only work 6 hours a day.
Teachers should work for love and not money.

Amy says:

Possibly this is lack of sleep talking, but I can't tell if that is sarcasm.

queenstuss says:

Don't worry. It's sarcasm. My husband is a teacher who has just embarked on a ridiculous report card writing marathon, and I was a teacher in my post mummy life, who was well and truly overworked and underpaid.

Amy says:

I am so very glad to hear that!

Carly says:

Ahh… so this is what I have to look forward to. Hurrah.

Robyn says:

Lucky you Carly! I'm sure you'll just love report writing. I can give you a little taste of it now if you'd like.

Carly says:

Oh Robyn, I can't tell you how much I would love to write some reports for you, but sadly exams start next week, so I simply must continue studying. What a shame.. perhaps another time? ;)

Carly says:

I actually have plans to flee the country immediately after exams, so that won't work either. So sorry.

Robyn says:

I have this mental image of me running after your plane waving reports at you… It's making me laugh.

Robyn says:

Carly,
Thanks for the comments! I gave you a couple of special mentions in my review post just because you've been nice here…
