The time we steal from teachers

An opinion article analyzes the impact of bureaucracy on the work of Portuguese teachers, citing data from the OECD's TALIS 2024 study which reveals that 79% of lower secondary teachers identify excessive administrative work as a source of stress. The text highlights that, although teachers work an average of 40.5 hours per week, only 2.8 hours are dedicated to administrative tasks, but these cause stress due to their fragmentation and interruption of essential tasks. The article proposes measures such as reviewing non-teaching tasks, eliminating duplicate information and unnecessary reports, warning that digitizing old forms does not solve the underlying problem. Only 4% of surveyed teachers feel their opinions are valued by policymakers.
