However, the Government has made it clear that we do not encourage the recruitment of teachers from developing nations where there may be an adverse effect on the economy.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Few things are more important to our country's future than recruiting and keeping great teachers in our schools.
Government will not fail to employ education, to strengthen its hands, and perpetuate its institutions.
We should empower teachers to do their job by cutting wasteful spending and crippling bureaucracy, not classroom resources our educators and students need.
There will always be places in the world where good schools don't exist and good teachers don't want to go, not just in the developing world but in places of socioeconomic hardship.
I do recognise that, where recruitment difficulties persist, teachers can be put under great pressure.
Money is not the reason that people enter teaching.
Indians do not like Indian teachers; they prefer foreigners, but there is a huge demand for Indian teachers around the world.
It is vital that teachers can be paid more without having to leave the classroom. This will be particularly important to schools in the most disadvantaged areas as it will empower them to attract and recruit the best teachers.
The success of our economy shouldn't determine the success of our schools.
Education should be one of our top funding priorities; talking about it does not help the teachers and students who desperately need promises fulfilled.
