Teaching has become the least important part of being a teacher

I was talking with a teacher at my school yesterday. Experienced teacher, mid 30s, really good teacher. This teacher has a tertiary qualification in another profession. They've decided to pull the pin on teaching at the end of the year and move back to their original profession. It's a huge loss for our school, but you can't blame them at all.

We got talking about how actually teaching has moved so far down the priority list of work these days for a teacher. We spend so much time doing everything but actually teaching and doing a good job of preparing for teaching. We spend so much time on things that don't directly help our teaching, it's ridiculous.

Then this video can't up in my feed today and even though it's in the UK contact, it's pretty bang on. Just makes me wonder where all this lands and what the Australian education system will look like in 5 or 10 years time.

What are the best *cheap* lunch monitors?

Rick Shiels did a video on a £200 launch monitor recently (Shot Scope LM1) that he found to be quite accurate, apart from when he had the wrong club selected. Punters Golf in Australia have a similar one for $399AUD, which I assume is essentially drop shipped from Alibaba.

For someone who just wants a super cheap and basic way to get some numbers from their hitting net or on the range, which ones perform best?

Edit: please also hit me with your best lunch monitor jokes 🤦
