Show Notes

Australia is in the grip of a teacher shortage that is a decade in the making.  

New research by McCrindle has revealed more than half of educators are considering leaving the profession.

On top of that, teaching is increasingly becoming an aging profession, with 20% of the workforce to reach retirement age over the next decade.

On today’s briefing, we speak with social researcher and demographer, Mark McCrindle, to explore why this is happening and what’s being done to attract more people to study teaching.
