Teaching Hours - International Comparison » Teacherly | The place for teachers. « Keywords: prep, international, statistics:

""The chart to the right is from the OECD and shows the number of hours secondary teachers are in front of a classroom during a year. It is nice to know that the rest of the world decides that it is in the best interest of the educational system to let teachers have proper time to grade, contact parents, and work with students one-on-one. An hour a day just isn't cutting it for me, particularly since my prep period happens to be the same period that many of my students in special education have their support class, which means that they come down to me for help at times.""
