Yeah, and this one is just wrong.
You'd get the impression from reading the newspapers that that 40% referred to people who had started their teaching career, had found it horrifying and then decided to leave straight away.
But that's just nowhere near the number of people who leave in their first year.
It's 9%.
If there are figures out there that 40% of people leave in the first year, that is completely wrong.
That might put someone who's thinking about teaching off going into training in the first place, which would be...
pretty bad given that we have a recruitment problem at the moment.
And actually a couple of people contacted me after I wrote about this to say they'd forwarded it on to friends of theirs who were doing teacher qualifications and had thought maybe they were going to pull out because it looked so horrific.
So numbers do really change the way people think about their careers.
And if they're misled by this, we could lose a lot of good teachers.

All propulsion parameters are normal and the trajectory is normal.
