What isn't mentioned in the article is something a teacher friend of mine told me: More time is spent in the classroom meeting government obligations than teaching. She's a devoted liberal and was disgusted with how little time she was allowed to actually teach. Her solution? More teachers with better pay, and smaller classes. Pathetic!

It won’t do any good, but you can point out that teacher’s salaries have steadily increased … and that class sizes have steadily decreased for thirty years … and her profession is more of a failure than ever.
