  I vote for a 4 day working week!

    Do you think that should also mean a 4 day school week as well? One day a week off school is like a month out of the entire year off school.

      Yes. I reckon a lot of schooling is training people to be accepting of work bullshit.

        Yep exactly.

        Neo-liberalism at its finest.

      I mean, school should also probably reflect more of what we face out in the real world, but that’s an entirely different discussion!

        I wholeheartedly agree.

        When I was on a school placement, there was a lot of, “This is boring! Why do I even have to learn this?”

        I think a lot of school is about learning how to learn and having to face boring things, because not every job is going to be smelling the roses everyday.

        I have to say, the curriculum includes content on respectful relationships and social-emotional learning, which I’m a big fan of. Although I’ve yet to see anyone teaching this stuff.

      Maybe, some schools take 3 weeks off instead of 2 during the little breaks so that’s 3 weeks out of the year anyway for them.
