I was explaining the issue for the NON educators here my friend. Im an ex teacher and a retired principal. My son is a principal. My wife is a teacher. Two of my daughter in laws are teachers. My father was a teacher. I GET IT.
I was trying to explain the complexity of the situation for those who've never been in a classroom and don't understand that you can't just say "Cap class sizes" and be done with it because it's not that simple.
I read what the ATA was proposing about class sizes and it was quite logical and reasonable in my opinion and they did propose doing it over time in a graduated way, so I'm not sure why the gov pushed back so hard, still trying to research the arguments on both sides.
