The reality is that there are too many teaching jobs required for teaching to be a 'vocation'. Hrolf...teaching before it was turned into a business was a vocation....in the seventies perhaps....Mr Barrett my old English teacher would have been a good example.....Just taught us Wordsworth all day whilst sipping tea with his feet up on the desk. That's not today my old mucker.....Mr Barrett just wouldn't do the job today. Barrett was a bloody good teacher.....Politicians, over decades have completely fcuked up teaching.

Besides it isn't really about pay with teaching as much....though one percent for seven years has kind of knocked the job back in terms of desirability. Anyone going into teaching nowadays has to be a bit of a zealot....Like has been said...they are going into a vocation...but one where they are going to be working day and night baby. Get a degree...and then get a teaching degree...then work sixty hours a week to stand still for crap money.

Just to let you know, my wife is a retired secondary school teacher having spent 35 years in the classroom. My daughter is currently a secondary school teacher. Much tougher job than many imagine I can assure you ! Going to bed now.Goodnight to one and all.

Goodnight, and a hat tip to both your missus and daughter.

Your approach would end up with a bunch of do gooders who don't have a clue. And you, a free marketeer. Who else should give their services at below the market rate? Doctors perhaps. That would be a great recipe...

Far better off nowadays...Massive respect for those still slogging away but I did my bit and I'm better off out of it. Besides, the staff room was a majority hive (not all) of ideological progressism....Some of them really nice people but they saw the world through that particular 'red lens'. Out of about thirty in the staff-room there were only about three or four others who could be described as non lefties....You learnt that keeping quiet was sensible. Mind you I was there during the Brexit vote and the school did its own internal vote. We had the stats breakdown for the vote and the staff actually voted for leave (1 in 3) in higher numbers than the students. Support for the EU isn't always a left/right thing....That's kind of been drummed home now.
