Why? Teachers everywhere have a very hard time getting a job because the supply vastly outstrips the demand. Why should teachers make more when it's clear supply is overpopulated?
- keithpeter 14y agoWhat is your definition of 'everywhere'? UK does rough supply management (well rough sometimes, we do get lags) and attempts to manage the number of training places.
- rohamg 14y agoSometimes this is because of tenure / union issues. Which brings me to my point: teacher compensation shouldn't just be about attracting new people (what do we do with the old ones, ship em to Yemen?), it should also be about training, empowering, and incentivizing the existing cadre to perform to higher standards.
