Professional Development. Depending on how strict administration is for each school, it's so the government can indoctrinate the teachers, so that they can later indoctrinate your kids. They have to be in the school or at a seminar, not skiing.

It inconvenienced me! Therefore I am enraged!

Reasons the marks are dropping.

Covid interruption.
Overflowing classrooms.
Poor curriculum.
No time for one-on-one instruction.
Less time for parents/tutors to help as the population gets poorer.
Mixed 10/20/40 classes, with little support.
New grading procedures.
Admin catering to parents.
Weak parenting that blames the teachers for poor results.
Overall air of hostility.
The governments "war on teachers".
Whatever they are they’re definitely harder on parents.
