I'm not surprised. I was in a London school yesterday which has advertised
for a Head of Maths at ?40 k pa with no success.
I left Business and Economics teaching a couple of years ago and as a self
employed consultant am worked off my feet but with much less stress and
much greater reward.
Now, I risk incurring the wrath of many if I suggest that anyone interested
in looking to the Graduate Teacher Programme or Oversees Teacher Programme
for employment based teacher training to help with recruitment problems
might like to contact me off the forum drop me a line at

Subject: Shortage of business and economics teachers
<< File: ATT00004.html >> Can the situation have got so bad? I knew
anecdotally that it was hard to replace staff, but our recent advert in the
Times Ed for a Head of Business Studies (in Hertfordshire) has resulted in
no applicants at all. Is this typical, or are we doing something wrong?
