I really hope this isn't the answer of an actual teacher. The planning periods are for planning. Not for going home early. Not for running errands. They are for planning lessons. [/quote]

I’m sure you agree, then, that my evening and weekend hours are mine to spend off-duty.

I’ll trade the 20-25 extra hours I spend at home each week for a duty-free planning period. I’m guessing I get about 20 hours of my own time back in this trade.

Sound good to you, PP? I’ll work every single minute at work, but not a single one once my contract hours are over.

Phew. Great deal for me![/quote]

So many teachers seem to expect the autonomy and pay level of professionals, but the limited responsibilities of hourly workers. [/quote]

You miss the person's point. They are fine with the responsibilities (doing them already), but want the autonomy that should go with it. Without the autonomy, they don't want the responsibilities.[/quote]
