[quote=Anonymous]This is a great way to look at it: One approach to understanding school policy is to recognize it as weighing the sometimes-conflicting interests of its three main constituents: teachers, students and their families, and taxpayers. Along many dimensions, the interests of students and teachers are aligned. For instance, both benefit from small class sizes and higher pay that helps attract high-quality teachers. Along other dimensions, such as the length of the school day or reliance on seniority over teacher skill, student and teacher interests diverge. The pandemic unquestionably brought their interests into sharp conflict, as the costs of virtual instruction fell disproportionately on students, whereas the health risks from live instruction fell disproportionately on teachers.[/quote]
