Do Teachers Really Need to Strike?
The
last recent teachers strike was held on the 12th of November. Teachers argued
about the workload, salary, and unnecessary tasks they’ve been given. Addition
to that, teachers don’t get paid to do extra work. But do they really need to
go on strike?
As
a student, I thought that teachers only needed to teach students about maths,
reading and writing. But, I was wrong, teachers have additional jobs like: caring for the students' feelings, making sure everything is alright at home,
and maintaining their behaviour.
Teachers
are what structure our future for the next generation, by that I mean, they
educate the youth for the sake of their lives and future. Without teachers, us
children wouldn’t be getting the learning needs they demand. So, in order to
keep our teachers ‘safe’, they need some consideration from the government,
education minister, and prime minister.
It’s
not just money teachers need, they also need resources such as, books and
sports gear; Of course this is for the students, to help them learn. These
resources are very useful to those who need them.
To
finish off, I personally think teachers have every right to protest. Keep in
mind that they’re doing this for themselves, their students, and their families.
