Jeff Bernstein on 10 Apr 12The Labor Education Program of the School of Labor and Employment Relations at the University of Illinois conducted surveys of 983 Chicago Public School (CPS) teachers during winter 2011-2012. In light of the recent debate over the length of the school day, this study offers a profile of a teacher's standard school day workload and the time he/she devotes to the job. Results from this survey revealed that claims that teachers are working "too short a day" are unwarranted at best and intellectually dishonest at worst.
