Different people will work different hours, but the government uses 9.1 hours per work day for teachers for things like EI calculations which would put them in the 1800-1850 hour a year range. Some will certainly work less than that and some that run a lot of extracurricular activities will work more. And the utterly lazy and useless ones probably work the bare minimum of about 1500-1600 hours a year.
Hm. For a structured union job thats a pretty nebulous answer.

So, with 2 weeks vacation most standard work years are about 2000 hours, so some teachers work between 1500-1850?

At 1850 hours thats 46 weeks of work, so thats only 6 weeks vacation which cant be right because summer alone is that 6 weeks, that doesnt take any other holidays or PD days into account.

At 1500 is about 38 work weeks which indicates 14 weeks off total?

And they are accounted for at 9.1 hours per day? So on an hourly basis they're logging 9.1 every work day?

But they're not paid per day or per hour, they're paid an annual salary regardless of number of hours actually worked right?

Anyways, I dont want to get into it, and I'm not attacking you or teachers I just wanted to run the numbers a bit because for something thats supposed to be open for everyone to know there seems to be a fair bit of ambiguity.
