At second level on a particular week there is a requirement for substitution because the geography teacher is not in. More often than not another teacher will come in and take that class, whether qualified or not. He or she will sit in and either the students will do what they wish or the teacher will try to take them through the next chapter as best they can in their studies. In that arrangement, is substitution payment made?
