[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t see why anyone would long term sub. I think it’s only $3 an hour more and you have to do all your own planning, communicating with parents, etc. Unless the teaching market was such that it was hard to find a job and you wanted to get known at a school to be hired in the future, I don’t see a point. It’s not enough money and no benefits. You could easily have a regular sub job daily if you wanted. [/quote]

This. I believe the retired teacher rate is slightly higher, or at least it used to be, although it's still not great. Most retired teachers who do long term jobs are knowledgeable about the subject area and vet the jobs carefully. They'll take the job if someone is going to be out on maternity leave or for a prearranged absence and they know the person has left good plans and is reachable if there's something they need. They're not going to do it for an unexpected vacancy where there's no existing structure in place. Those jobs are usually filled with whatever warm body is available. Like others have said, you get what you pay for.[/quote]
