Aren't you sick of all those high paid teachers?

Their hefty salaries are driving up taxes, and they only work nine or
ten months a year! It's time we put things in perspective and pay
them for what they do...baby-sit!

We can get that for less than minimum wage. That's right. I would
give them £3.00 an hour and only the hours they worked, not any of
that silly planning time. That would be a da y (7:45 AM to 4:00 PM
with 45 min. off for lunch).

Each parent should pay £19.50 a day for these teachers to baby-sit
their children. Now, how many do they teach in a day... maybe 30? So
that's 19.50 X 30 = £585.00 a day.

However, remember they only work 180 days a year! I am not going to
pay them for any vacations. Let's see . . that's £585 x 180 =
£105,300 per year. (Hold on! .. My calculator must need batteries!)

What about those special teachers and the ones with Master's degrees?
Well, we could pay them minimum wage just to be fair, £5.52 an hour.
That would be £5.52 times 6.5 hours times 30 children times 180 days
= £193,752.00 per year. Wait a minute, there is something wrong here!
.....There sure is, duh!

Make a teacher smile; send this to someone who appreciates teachers!
(Average teacher salary £21,000/180 days = £116.66 per day/30
students = £3.88/ 6.5 hours = £0.59 per hour per student.)

Very inexpensive babysitter, and they even educate your kids! Crazy,
eh!
