Has anyone had a contract that pays for planning and assessment time tied to standards? I’m benchmarking workloads, and the only concrete example I have is a 2023 district contract in Abu Dhabi that counted 2 hours per week as paid prep for CEFR-aligned units — curious if that’s typical or an outlier for lesson plan efficiency.
In my last public-school contract in Oman, we got 1.5 hrs/week paid only when it sat on the master timetable as a “CEFR unit planning block” and we turned in a one-page map aligned to International language standards | Cambridge English. Framed as generic prep, it got cut; framed as a scheduled block with an artifact, it stuck; what contact-hours-to-prep ratio are you targeting?
