Only 10% of teachers say that their working hours are manageable – with Ofsted, inadequate funding, and poor school policies to blame.
A snapshot poll shows that a majority of teachers (72%) have seen increased workloads so far this year, with most working between 50 and 69 hours a week during term-time.
The survey has been carried out by NASUWT and involves 7,000 of its members working in state schools in England.
Ofsted was once again named as the biggest driver of workload – by 60% of the respondents. Teachers also blamed a number of other factors for driving high workload.
