ARGENTINIAN TEACHERS ARE
WORKING SIGNIFICANTLY
LONGER HOURS PER WEEK (43.7) THAN THE
GENERAL PUBLIC ESTIMATE THEY ARE
(31.2)
ARGENTINA GTSI STATISTICS
> Despite holding teachers in higher regard than some countries polled, only around a third (34%) of Argentinian people would encourage their child to become a teacher. Compared to their Latin American counterparts, this is below Chile (41%) and equal to Colombia (34%), but higher than Brazil (20%), Panama (23%) and Peru (24%). It also contrasts sharply with India, where over half (54%) of people would encourage their child to become a teacher, more than any other country surveyed, and with China where 50% would encourage their child. However, it is considerably more than in Russia, where only 6% of people would encourage their child to become a teacher – the least of all the countries polled.
> Seventy-four percent of Argentinian people polled instinctively see teachers as not respected, the fourth highest of all the countries polled after Israel (86%), Brazil (84%) and Hungary (82%). By sharp contrast, in China only 9% of respondents said teachers were not respected, the lowest of all the countries surveyed).
