Since this is the opposite of what was supposed to happen we might conclude that the Workload Agreement is not having a positive effect.
So what is the solution?
It seems that, just as individualised learning was made possible by computerisation, so computers can save the day here as well.
The government has already said that all schools must have a learning platform in place by 2010, and it looks as if this will deliver the economies of time that teachers need.
The Scholaris Learning Gateway system is designed to solve the issues raised by the Workload Agreement through allowing teachers to create lesson plans, manage classes and perform curriculum assessments on-line, no matter where they are.
By streamlining administration processes, the Scholaris system can free up time for teachers to devote to more important tasks like lesson preparation, marking, research and helping their students achieve the best.
