(79% of supply teachers are women)

so schools and early years settings need more supply teachers bc absence rates rise as the job gets worse, then schools and settings lose £££ by using private providers, further driving down conditions

Average secondary supply teacher pay is £150 a day, but schools shell out £291

we're a non-profit, shoestring-budget, parent-led setting. if *we* can't survive the childcare funding crisis, then few will. 1/3 of settings have closed since 2020 and truly by 2030 unless something changes there'll be almost none left

me and my three year old were on the radio this morning - he's making beef stew out of sand, I'm warning of the looming childcare crisis and its disastrous consequences (we're on at 7:07am, by which point we'd ofc already been up for two hours) www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...
