Intensification of teachers’ job Sample Clauses

Intensification of teachers’ job. It should be admitted that continuous reforms in the school curriculum and assessment system may negatively impact teachers’ emotional and physical conditions thus decreasing their motivation (Salifu, 2014).

In his book Hargreaves (1995) refers to teachers’ voices claiming that they are burdened with paper work: The paperwork we're getting I'd almost like to give it up.
