I teach at a Victorian high school. I dont like doing workplace visits for students on work experience. It cuts into my planning time and sometimes it's just unrealistic. Last year I was assigned a 90 minute round trip to visit a student. The vice principal said it was possible to do that in a double period because a double period is 100 minutes long. I told the vice principal I called and they said "no it's called a workplace visit for a reason"

What I'm asking is what happens if I choose not to do it? Can they actually punish me? I have end of semester exams from my year 10s and 12s, assessments from my year 8s and planning. I dont have time to leave my desk for these things
