[quote=DODGER,323723]I can’t comment on the education system in the USA as I have no first hand knowledge of it but in Britain and Australia their respective unions are both extremely left leaning. They have in many instances sort to spread their political dogma to their students. It’s called indoctrination.
Encouraging children to march at strike rallies and protest on behalf of Teachers is not in my opinion part of the job spec.
Their very unions hold much of the blame as to why they have fallen on the social ladder. They have undermined them self’s and wonder why they are not held in a higher regard.
I voted with my feet. Both of my sons attended a private school in Australia.
All parents were expected to take an active roll in the school on a weekly basis.
The teachers there worked six day a week. Those that lived on campus are on call seven days a week. They are also expected to take part in activities during school holidays.
Many of them earned double the salary of a public sector teacher.
The pastoral care that they give is quite remarkable. I speak from personal experience on that issue.
There is a vast difference between the two systems not only in terms of remuneration but of status.
