It’s widely reported that there are ongoing and severe teacher shortages around the world.

But what do we mean by teacher shortages? In terms of causes, teacher shortages are driven partly by low teacher recruitment, meaning that not enough new teachers join the profession each year, and low teacher retention, meaning that a high proportion of existing teachers leave the profession to work in other sectors.

Together, this low teacher recruitment and retention lead to larger class sizes, and a higher number of teacher vacancies.

So, how can we address these teacher shortages, and therefore improve education for young people in England and elsewhere?

In this season of Research for the Real World we'll hear from:
- Dr Asma Benhenda on the root causes of teacher shortages in different countries, and the impact of the pandemic and pay has on the workforce
- Professor Caroline Daly on how those new to teaching can be supported to develop their careers
- Emily MacLeod on her doctoral research tracking young people’s teaching aspirations.
