I will back you up on that! We MUST stand together and be adamant about our request otherwise, as Linda says, they will continue to take advantage of us. They need the grades - so we have to be firm!

Did you expect anything different? They see how we continue working under difficult conditions, both as teachers during the year and markers, being underpaid, and the like, ( I won't even bring up the strike!).... so, they are confident that we'll give in and once again become marking machines until all the exams are graded! We had better stick to our guns this time!
