There will be enough teachers to mark the exams because it's a sweet deal. An extra $100 to $200 per day on top of an already professional-level salary. Some great pocket money just in time for two months off during the warmest weather our country sees.
But you're acting like it's simply show up and get paid, so don't complain about whether its $100 or $200, it's easy money. Well no, its not easy money. It is very difficult and time consuming to mark these exams. Most exams will take 15-25 minutes each to mark, with literally tens of thousands of exams to mark. Exams have to be marked in Edmonton too, so unless the teacher leaves in Edmonton and area there is an inconvenience involved. If there are some who feel that the remuneration now is not good enough, they’re entitled to feel that way and can voice their opinion by not doing it. Simple enough
