Teacher sickness has increased significantly in parts of the UK, do you think teachers are overworked? Should the new govt put in place more protection for teachers?

00:00When I say over, I mean, they're probably not paid enough, I'd imagine.
00:02And obviously, I think things nowadays are really hard with children.
00:05You can't discipline as much as you can.
00:07So I think it makes their jobs quite difficult.
00:12I mean, ours is working a nine to five job, five days a week.
00:17I mean, obviously, they have more work to do outside,
00:20marking papers and that sort of thing.
00:22And I think, yeah, they should be properly compensated for that.
00:26Do you think that the new government should put in place
00:28more protection for teachers?
00:32It's difficult to say.
00:33I don't know what protection teachers have particularly.
00:36If you mean violence in schools or any kind of that sort of problem,
00:42yes, they should be adequately protected with adequate CTV and that sort of thing.
00:49I think they should be looking at every sort of every aspect, really.
00:52Social care, I think it's a big one.
00:53I think they need to be looking at as well.
00:54Just, yeah, putting more police back on the streets.
00:56Yeah, lots of things.
00:57I could go on for ages.
