Are you sick of highly paid teachers? Teachers ´ hefty salaries are driving up taxes, and they only work 9 or10 months a year! It ´s time we put things in perspective and pay them for what they do - babysit! We can get that for less than minimum wage. That ´s right. Let ´s give them £5.93 an hour and only the hours they worked; not any of that silly planning time, or any time they spend before or after school. That would be 

£ 41.51 a day (8.30 am to 3:30 PM with 60 min. off for lunch and plan-- that equals 7 1/2 hours). Each parent should pay £ 41.51 a day for these teachers to baby-sit their children. Now how many students do they teach in a day...maybe 90? So that ´s £ 41.51 x 90 = £ 3735.90 a day. However, remember they only work 180 days a year!!! I am not going to pay them for any holidays . LET ´S SEE.... That ´s

£ 3735.90 X 180= £ 672462.00 per year. (Hold on! My calculator needs new batteries). What about those special education teachers and the ones with Master ´s degrees? Well, we could pay them minimum wage (£ 6.90), and just to be fair, round it off to £ 7.00 an hour. That would be £ 7.00 X 71/2 hours X 90 children X 180 days = £ 850500.00 per year. Wait a minute -- there ´s something wrong here! There sure is! The average teacher ´s salary (nation wide) is £ 25000.00/180 days = £ 138.90 per day/ 90 students = £ 1.54 / 7 1/2 hours = £ 0.20 per hour per student--a very inexpensive baby-sitter and they even EDUCATE your kids!) WHAT A DEAL!!!! Make a teacher smile (or cry!); this is what you are missing

I’ve got 16 kids who study 3 hours a week. That would, at 5 pounds an hour,

add up to 16x3x5+ 240 pounds a week.

I’ve got another 30 kids who study 4 hours a week. That would be, again at 5 pounds an hour, 30x4x5= 600 pounds a week.

Multiply that by 4 (even though most weeks have a bit more than four weeks)

and you get (240+600)x4= 3360 pounds a month.

(and that salary even includes the private tutoring and the paid meetings time)
