    There are teacher shortages across a range of subjects in secondary school - as there generally are at the start of each year

    There are teacher shortages across a range of subjects in secondary school - as there generally are at the start of each year


    More than 400 principal and teaching roles are currently being advertised in the Education Gazette.

    In 2024 there were almost 1600 vacancies - a similar number to recent comparable years.

    Secondary Principals' Council Chair Kate Gainsford says schools are employing a lot of teachers from overseas.

    She says it's a worldwide problem -- but we also need to be building up a local pool of teachers.
