Teach First warns of worst recruitment crisis this century
They report that the demand for teachers has more than doubled since last year, and school leaders are struggling to fill vacancies. The crisis in 2002 led schools to expand their search for teachers oversees to find suitable staff, with the government relaxing regulations on support staff teaching.
Education Secretary Nicky Morgan has acknowledged the issue, saying she is “very conscious” that she will have to look at teacher supply problems.
Teach First chief executive Brett Wigdortz said: “The general sense we are getting from heads is that it is worse than it was in 2002. There is a real teacher shortage happening. Schools are struggling for lots of reasons.”
