Women in their thirties are the single biggest group leaving teaching each year.
The mass departure of experienced teachers disrupts school stability, leading to increased behaviour issues and workloads for remaining staff.

I support a lot of teachers through disciplinary action, and there seems to be an alarming trend to go straight to dismissal and the TRA whenever possible. No wonder teachers are quitting in droves

Govt’s spend too much time and money on recruitment, when we have huge numbers of incredible teachers walking away year after year after year……so frustrating #Teaching @mtpt_project
Our report with @mtpt_project out today finds the education sector is trapped in a vicious cycle of poor retention and recruitment. Neither increased pay or Labour’s pledge to recruit 6,500 new teachers will be enough to resolve this issue.

In today’s education news… let’s talk through @bridgetphillipsonmp ’s statement today which discusses an 5.5% pay rise for teachers and leaders, more funding for schools and other steps to reduce workload!

We welcome the announcement today that teachers will be awarded a fully funded 5.5% pay award. This is a necessary first step in reversing the real terms cuts inflicted upon the profession over the last 14 years. #ValueEducators

When you stop for the summer,you realise how much of your time as a teacher is spent away from your family.I reckon on the average school day,I see my children for about 2 and a half hours a day (sometimes less).They grow so fast so to see them for 13-14 hours is wonderful 😊
