I taught full time at a French secondary school all ages groups FOR 1 YEAR! I could not do that until 64/5 and expect to recuperate anything resembling meaningful life from what’s left of the deal. Moan about holidays. Do the job (70+ hrs per week term time)! For me holidays were like therapy sessions ("He’s dribbling whisky again! The straw’s slipped out)! #grevesolidaire #Teachers #enseignant #Prof #Surveillant #Lecturers #University #Professors. There has to be a wonderful life at the end.
