I think that the demands of teaching vary greatly based on the subject area taught, the school system's operation, and the teacher's dedication.
My wife just retired from teaching high school and college English. She has always been a tough, motivated, devoted teacher. She too often worked 12 hour days. But her situation was often very different from many (most?) other teachers.
Although she was a hard worker, the fact is that most schools offered study hall duty and "prep" time during the day. She seldom taught more than four or five hours per day of classroom instruction. Furthermore, many of the teachers that she taught with over the years did just enough to get by.
I guess that the teaching profession is just like most other professions. There are industrious, successful teachers who earn their pay and deserve more, and there are also slackers who should have been released from their jobs long ago.
