Plenty of teachers just fall into the job because it's one they think

short hours, holidays and pension.

I'm not sure what short hours they would be.

The myth that all teachers work many hours in excess of actual teaching
ones is just that,


When U get a moment Dave come up here and argue that with SWMBO and some
of her colleagues;!...

No - I'll send my brother. He taught maths for over 30 years. And never
once did any school work in the holidays - except when the entire staff
was called in for a day (or whatever) just before the end. Nor did he do
any work at home. He did run a few extra curriculum activities at some
parts of his career - but adding in the time spent of these still didn't
add up to working the number of hours per year most in full time work did.

However, he was rather poorly paid for most of his working life.
