Teachers are paid for the work they do in the classroom and not the time off they have. That doesn't include the evenings spent marking and grading papers or helping students after class.
Yes, there are teachers leaving the profession due to oversized classrooms and not having the resources to do their job. Province says they plan to hire 3,000 more teachers. Would it not be better to fix the issues as opposed to hiring more and the ones who are leaving.
All the polls show that parents are on the side of teachers in this strike. They support the teachers as they want a good quality education for their kids. Me personally I've never married and don't have any kids but I do support teachers in this case.
