Survey: Teachers work 53 hours per week on average - The Answer Sheet - The Washington Post

Survey: Teachers work 53 hours per week on average - The Answer Sheet - The Washington Post: "A new report from Scholastic and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, called Primary Sources: America’s Teachers on the Teaching Profession, finally quantifies just how hard teachers work: 10 hours and 40 minutes a day on average. That’s a 53-hour work week!

These numbers are indicative of teachers’ dedication to the profession and their willingness to go above and beyond to meet students’ needs. It never was, and certainly isn’t now, a bell-to-bell job."
