Planning & Collaboration Time Survey

Missouri NEA works on the state and local level to improve working conditions for educators. We need the reality of your experience to help other stakeholders understand the importance of plan time for educators. Thank you for taking time to complete this survey.
1.How much self-directed plan time do you get in the typical full week of school? Do not include time supervising students, traveling, lunch, or before and after the school day. Do not include required collaboration time.
2.What do you do during self-directed plan time? Please mark all that apply. This can include what you do after contract hours which you would normally do during self-directed plan time.
3.What is your estimate of how many hours a week you spend outside the contract day doing school-related work? 
4.In an average week, how many days do you work through lunch?
5.How much time do you spend in collaborative meetings or collaborative planning/grading in the typical full week of school?
6.On average, how much sleep do you get on a school night?
Survey results will only be reported in the aggregate. Individual names will remain confidential. But we need to be able to show that the survey includes educators from around the state and with various assignments. Please complete the following information.
