„Status is not just a nice to have, but something which can be a direct contributor to improved pupil performance – via an increased likelihood of more effective teachers entering the profession and remaining in the profession. Whilst status is already high in some countries, it remains a mid ranked profession in many, and therefore presents a real and present challenge to governments as they seek to improve the capacity of their teaching profession.“
