Why the Fuss?

Now I certainly do not see any reason for any teacher to object to the Teaching Act. Teachers are demanding more salary and of course want to be on par with the salaries of those in the private sector who perform similar duties.
Do you they have any idea of how highly selective some of those private sector jobs are. Some of these persons have to submit police record (likewise at High Flyer), do actual tests and not one but two interviews.
For too long it has been too easy to jump into a teaching position.If it is that we are serious about it being an upstanding profession we must have some rules and guidelines.
