Pretty sure it is actually just the longest international border in the world. I guess Chile and Argentina might be close, maybe Russia and somewhere, but USA Canada I reckon is the longest.

Not sure this comment deserves downvoting. As a teacher (UK) I get 13 weeks off a year, which is pretty much all time off (no expectation to prep/mark). Private sector friends tend to get around 4-5 weeks max. Similarly, the pension is far better than private sector pensions.

Whilst I might be able to change career for more money, I’m not sure it would be a net benefit, even for 50% more.

That said, the “work time” as a teacher is fairly full on, at around 55-60 hours a week for me, so that’s some form of trade-off. You do have to like doing it!
