it's your kid who ends up suffering not the teachers, they got the raise remember?
On a more serious note, pretty sure that raise was in a contract agreed to by the government, and was based on inflation so about 4%. so why would teachers give up 4% when the government is in tough, if bonuses aren't offered when things are good? Where's the balance there?
I agree with rubicant that teachers are paid fairly, but I also don't think that the time off each year makes teaching the "sweetest gig ever".
