If teachers knew their subjects thoroughly they wouldn’t need to make lengthy preparations the night before, just a simple which bit of the subject is the next to teach.

In spite of their protestations to the contrary, compared to the factory/office/shop etc worker, teachers have it easy when it comes to holidays.

I used to start at 8.30 am.... and the teachers where there... i finished at half 4 and so did many of the teachers

In primary school just teaching the children is not good enough.... you have to have worksheets, plan activities, pictures to colour, things to make etc.....these have to be organised mostly by the teacher (as theta's have activities of their own to organise and obviously not in class time
