About this Dataset

Teachers' Statutory Teaching And Working Time

This dataset contains data on statutory requirements on teaching and working time of teachers. It covers requirements for full-time teachers in public institutions at pre-primary, primary and (lower and upper) secondary education (general and vocational programmes).

The default table displays data on teaching time (in hours, days and weeks per year). The selection can be changed to display data in working time (total working time or working time required at school, in hours per year).

For more information, please consult Education at a Glance 2024. Additional details regarding the methodology used, references to the sources and specific notes for each country can be found in Education at a Glance 2024 Sources, Methodologies and Technical Notes.

For historical data on statutory teaching hours, see Trends in teachers' statutory teaching time since 2000.
