I would really like to know how a few things actually work in schools over there: >>Do staff need to write/design/ the courses they teach and their assessment? >>Is pay linked to results, and if so, what results, and what is the extent of the linkage? >>How tight is cash for equipment/PC access/reprographics? >>To what time extent are staff signed up to email communication from parents (hours per week)? >>What average daily hours are worked on site, and at home? >>What is a ballpark contact ratio (staff/student)in classes? >>Is exam invigilation, and cover for absent colleagues managed in house, or by examiners/substitutes? >>What is a ballpark ratio for hours of contact per week compared to hours of preparation time, and hours of admin/meetings? >>What whole school systems of behaviour management are operated, and to what extent, and is there any zero tolerance? >>How is sick leave administered? >> What are the rules for sabbatical leave?>>whtat are some pros and cons of private re' state in relation to the above?
Any feedback, or links, would be really appreciated.
