PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
Teacher Shortages (28 November 1989)

That this House believes that the problems of teacher shortages within the United Kingdom will not be solved without substantial additional resources being made available to the education service by central government; and further believes that the effectiveness of the service depends crucially upon the teachers and other ancillary staff who work within it, and that this factor should be reflected by substantial increases in salaries to ensure education does not lose out in recruitment, retention and development of its workforce.
