New Zealand Teachers Bullied at School

I was told that it was not possible to measure teacher’s workloads and I agree its not. There is so much work outside of the classroom that can’t be quantified. But at the same time most of the workload can be measured the following table lists some of the teachers and that portion of teachers workloads that could be measured during 2009 at Logan park High School. I have not included the teachers names. But the full formula can be made available if there is interest. You will be able to see that clearly some teachers were severely overloaded. While others were nearly on permanent break. Ethical ?
Column 1 – Actual student contact hours per week
Column 2 – Normal hours of work per week
Column 3 – The actual hours of work allocated and divided by column 2 to identify weeks worked
Column 4 – Students actually taught
Column 5 – Part time indicator
