New South Wales' teacher shortage may be exacerbated by a growing concern: housing affordability. A recent report from UNSW Sydney reveals that the high cost of living in the state is driving many teachers to leave the profession or seek employment elsewhere. As the demand for skilled educators continues to rise, the report warns that the shortage of teachers in NSW schools could worsen if the issue is not addressed. With the state's teachers already facing some of the highest living costs in the country, the report's findings highlight the urgent need for policymakers to develop solutions to make housing more affordable for educators.
