“The image of teachers as underpaid and overworked, laboring in the trenches of an increasingly ramshackle public school system, has become a staple of American popular culture.
It turns out, it’s not just us. A new global study finds that elementary and pre-school teachers across 34 developed countries make about 22% less, on average, than their full-time counterparts with similar education levels who have chosen to do pretty much anything else with their lives. The numbers are similarly dismal for for middle and high school teachers, whose salaries have largely stagnated since the 2008 financial crisis.”
