The time allocation behaviour of primary teachers is described using diary data on teachers’ workloads. The diary data describe teachers’ daily and weekly time use inside and outside schools. The time allocated to the myriad of tasks undertaken by teachers is described using actual time allocated and the proportion of total available time allocated to each activity or each teaching day. Throughout the thesis, the actual time allocated by teachers is referred to as the time budget, and the proportional allocation of time is referred to as the time share. The use of time budgets is common in time-use research. The use of time shares in the analysis of teachers’ time-use that is developed in this thesis is novel, and complements the traditional use of time budgets. A conceptual framework of teachers’ time use that uses these time budgets and time shares and describes teacher time allocation behaviour...
