What are the long-term implications of this situation, and what steps are being taken to address the underlying issues?

The shortage of teachers and school leaders is expected to worsen, given the high number of retiring teachers and the reliance on career-changers. The state is trying to mitigate this by reducing bureaucracy, adding administrative staff and support personnel, but the need to hire over 3,300 teachers by 2030 far exceeds the 2,300 the state can train itself. Further research is planned to identify specific challenges and develop improvement proposals, with results expected by mid-2026.
