Summary

Educators and social workers are facing extreme understaffing, leading to unmanageable caseloads that negatively impact service delivery and student support. This situation creates significant frustration as educators struggle to meet the needs of their students, resulting in burnout and a decline in the quality of education. The lack of adequate staffing and support systems exacerbates the challenges faced by educators, leaving them feeling overwhelmed and unable to provide the necessary attention to each student.
