Teacher Shortages in Regional and Rural NSW with Michael Sciffer

Teacher shortages are disproportionately affecting regional and rural NSW.

With inflation, an increased cost of living, and a heavy workload, schools are struggling to attract and retain teachers as many seek employment elsewhere.

Ash sat down with Michael Sciffer, a teacher and school counselor, to discuss the issues.

“In the last decade, and the last five years in particular, the shortages have become quite extreme in schools.”
