Exclusive: New teaching jobs with salaries up to $130,000 a year to stop classroom exodus | lucy_carroll
New teaching jobs with salaries up to $130,000 a year would be created to stop an exodus of educators from classrooms and entice students into the profession, under sweeping reforms planned by the NSW government.
“NSW has some of the best teachers in the world, but they often leave the classroom and move into management roles to secure higher pay and career progression,” Mitchell said. To earn higher salaries, many teachers abandon the classroom to become principals, deputies, take head office jobs or leave the profession entirely.
Earlier this month, federal Education Minister Jason Clare said chronic shortages of maths and science teachers were most acute in high schools. Hattie, who led one of the world’s biggest studies into the factors which improve student learning, will give independent advice“The rewarding of excellence and expertise is the right topic to realise high standards and maximise positive impacts on students,” Professor Hattie said. “It is exciting to be part of these NSW discussions and I look forward to hearing the views of the profession.”
