In this topic we assume that teachers dont work extra hours the other weeks to make up for all the school breaks.


"Make up" what? The school hours don't change and they have no course work to grade from a break because the kids were... on break.


ITP: lesson planning, adjusting to curriculum based on progress of students, grading (most teachers give exams just before break specifically because they take a while to grade and they'll have all break to do it), homework planning, and dozens of other things don't exist.

My mom is a teacher. She works year-round, because even during the summer there are adjustments to the standard curriculum that she will then have to incorporate into her lessons. Or pretty frequently teachers will be reassigned to different classes between school years, so you might have taught honors math one year and now you're going to be teaching remedial math the next. Which means all of your lesson plans from the year before are now essentially useless and you have to start from scratch to plan the year out.
