Re: Teachers to strike over pay
 
whilst working as a teaching assistant I have been.....vomited on, wee'd on, pooed on, groped,flashed at, punched, pushed over, bitten,spat at, verbally abused by children and parents,threatened by a father when we wouldnt let him take his child, i have had headlice numerous times, been in contact with ringworm and tapeworm. Working with children you have more chance of catching the numerous coughs, colds and virus' that go around and the childhood illnesses such as chicken pox etc......

I think the deserve what they are asking for !

Two intresting points here ;

A qualified teacher with a degree could walk into most professions, earning 2x the 30,000 they earn.

I also agree with Neils point on they should have some real life experience before teaching.Most teachers live there school life in a top set where behavior is normally impeccable. Then when becoming a teacher they take over a bottom set and then its body shock time.

Most people only complain because they think they pay for the teachers ;).

Just to add.......If anyone is interested in becoming a teaching assistant, contact your local college.
