I'm in a core subject and we have 4 papers for our essay-based subject, so there is a lot of marking.
We share out the papers rather than marking per class and, in groups, take responsibility for particular sections of the papers. This does make it a lot quicker. We're a big department and have 2 sets of job share teachers - so 4 people covering 2 f/t posts. Obviously as individuals their share of the marking is reduced accordingly as they're p/t teachers.
I have another teacher who has a HoY role and therefore a reduced timetable. They do, however, work f/t and have a Y11 class of their own. They only have 3 other classes. I've been giving this teacher a full set of papers. It didn't occur to me not to tbh - he works f/t. My concern with the p/t teachers is they earn less money, so should do less marking. He may not be in the dept all the time but is a f/t staff member of the school and paid accordingly. He obviously has less marking overall due to having fewer classes and that is the allowance for being HoY.
He's started making noises about how he should have less, making 'jokey' comments, esp around the p/t staff members.
Am I in the wrong to be giving him a full set?
