Hey Zhukov,

My girlfriend is also a teacher (kindergarden though, age 3-6) and she has similar problems you seem to have. She likes her job alot, but the pay isn't all that great (well it is if you compare the salary-holiday ratio) and she has a hard time finding a fixed position (which is nearly impossible in Belgium).

I don't know if striking really solves anything. In our country they strike for the tiniest thing, which basically renders the concept of striking useless.

Koen, he's probably not into teaching because of the high salary. That doesn't mean he has to pay his bills aswell and we all know life ain't getting any any cheaper, so to attain the same living standards, your salary needs to go up aswell aye.

Rgds, Kj
