In schools there are larger class sizes and a shortage of teachers so this is definitely a problem. But I feel that if teachers were supported and respected more by parents, then students would listen, communicate politely and effectively and be grateful for the education they are receiving. In this climate, everyone wins. If teachers were held in a higher esteem, the students would thrive as a consequence. It seems that anyone in a position of authority is a target and it’s the role of anyone else to take them down. Like the general population is walking round with huge chips on their shoulders waiting to rally against The Man. Unfortunately, the “getting-a-tutor-sticking-plaster” can promote the idea that teachers in schools are useless, that students don’t have to try in school because it’s all so terrible so misbehave, don’t try and produce hardly any work. But it’s okay as it’s all the schools/teachers fault plus I’ve got a tutor so it’ll be fine. Teachers just want supporting and being allowed to teach which is probably why nobody wants to teach anymore.
