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.
Nope not how it works. It's our protected time.
So incredibly wrong.
This is from the old contract, but I imagine it is the same for the current contract.
23.6 Planning Periods
23.6.1 Purpose
23.6.1.1 The Parties agree that planning periods shall be used for instructional
purposes: planning lessons, reviewing student work, maintaining
student records, holding conferences, and other similar activities.
If you don't understand why this matters, the planning periods have become a sticking point in school scheduling discussions.
