Substitute Teacher is a name that everyone is very familiar with, and it is the code name of temporary teachers recruited by all public schools due to insufficient number of teachers due to insufficient quotas. Substitute teachers, formerly known as private teachers, have called for the complete abolition of substitute teachers and the existence of substitute teachers since the end of the state's conversion to public service. However, many schools have limited quotas, one school is full but still lacks teachers; and some remote areas in the Midwest are not able to attract talents to stay in the school because of poor regional conditions. These reasons have forced schools to recruit substitute teachers, so substitute teachers still exist in large numbers.
Substitute teachers and regular teachers work in the same content and nature of work, but equal work does not mean equal pay. The establishment of teachers belongs to the professional establishment and enjoys the full allocation of local finance. Hidden benefits such as five insurances and one gold are high, and the work is stable and guaranteed. Substitute teachers are only temporary teachers in the school, and the salary is paid by the school from other funds. Substitute teachers have low salaries and basically do not pay five social insurance and one gold, which makes a large number of substitute teachers old and helpless.
There is no establishment, that is, there is no guarantee, so what is supporting the substitute teacher?
01, close to home, good with baby
A large number of substitute teachers are willing to stick to their posts without staffing guarantees because they are close to home. Especially in many townships and small counties, if you are careful, you can find that the substitute teachers are basically locals. The reason why they chose to be substitute teachers in the first place may be because they are closer to home and take care of their families. It is precisely because of this convenience that they can stick to this position again and again.
02, when I was young, I didn't know the importance of the examination, and I already missed it when I knew it
There are many teachers who have been teaching for more than ten or twenty years, and may not know the importance of the examination when they become substitute teachers. By now, the age requirement for preparing the exam has long been exceeded, etc. And these old teachers, now there is almost no chance to join the staff, and they may encounter the dilemma of old age and no support. It is hoped that the relevant departments of the state can pay attention to this problem and solve the problem of old-age security for retired substitute teachers.
03. If the graduation examination fails, choose to take the examination while taking the substitute class
Many fresh graduates, who fail the examination in the graduation season, will choose to become a substitute teacher, accumulate teaching experience, and then carry out the examination. But the reality is often not as good as they expected, and the work of substitute teachers will also distract them from a lot of time and energy. This makes their exam preparation more difficult, often staying in the position of substitute teacher for a long time.
04. The sense of responsibility after becoming a substitute teacher
There may also be many teachers who want to quit their jobs and escape from the industry again and again after becoming substitute teachers. But substitute teachers are also teachers, and the teacher's sense of responsibility makes them compromise again and again, stay again and again, postpone the time of leaving backwards again and again, and trap themselves in the same place. Perhaps they also have expectations in their hearts, looking forward to improving the treatment of substitute teachers, hoping that their labor can get a matching income.
No matter what reason they become substitute teachers, they are also struggling and persevering on the front line of education. The salary of substitute teachers is not even half or even one-third of that of regular teachers, and the gap is too large. Since there is a demand for substitute teachers, and major public schools are recruiting substitute teachers, they should give substitute teachers corresponding treatment, narrow the wage gap with regular teachers, and realize the labor value of modern classroom teachers.
Select the best into the editor, and the turning point of the substitute teacher has come
Now some areas have begun to implement merit-based recruitment, which is also a turning point for substitute teachers, and qualified teachers must seize this opportunity. Merit-based recruitment refers to recruiting outstanding in-service teachers in the region to become teachers. The exam is still divided into a written test and an interview, which is the same as the open recruitment exam for teachers. However, the recruitment targets are in-service non-staff teachers such as substitute teachers and contract teachers in the district, and the age restrictions, academic restrictions and professional restrictions of recruitment are relatively relaxed. This makes many substitute teachers have the opportunity to re-edit and have the possibility of competition.
At present, the "merit-based inclusion" is only implemented in some areas and has not yet been popularized. But this is a good signal and a start, hoping to be able to set up a way for substitute teachers to be able to compete for a possibility of turning into a compilation according to their own strengths.
