Abstract
Teacher shortages are influenced by a complicated interaction of factors. Most prior research does not consider such complexities, resulting in misleading interpretations of the problem and ineffective solutions. Findings from our multi-pronged research approach suggests that there is no shortage of people wanting to teach in England. Therefore, widely-used policy approaches, such as financial incentives, are not appropriate long-term solutions. While they may be important to those who are considering teaching, they do not change people's decision to teach or not. Addressing teacher shortages needs to also consider the impact of government policies. More creative approaches to retention could be tested.
