Education
1. Low Pay Relative to Education and Responsibility
-
Why: Teachers often hold bachelor's or master's degrees but are paid less than similarly educated professionals in other fields. The gap between workload and compensation discourages new graduates from entering the profession and pushes current teachers to leave.
2. High Workload and Burnout
-
Why: Beyond classroom teaching, educators spend hours on lesson planning, grading, parent communication, and administrative tasks. Many work well beyond contracted hours, leading to chronic stress and burnout.
