I...

    Julie Bishop's Vision for Education in Australia (Merged)

    Re: Julie Bishop Introduces "Perfomance-Based Pay" for Teachers Personally, i don't think that peformance bay pay is necessarily the way to go: as everyone has already pointed out, you can't always hold a teacher accountable for the results of their class. That being said, i think that we have...

    Time?

    I don't think you would need to quit sport, or your employment. What i would do is draw up a timetable, and then strike saturday mornings (or whenever you play sport or work) and use those times as no go zones in terms of school work. Then fill in the rest of the timetable with study times for...
