Description

Improving Teacher Retention in High-Turnover Areas: A Geo-Spatial Approach. This project aims to improve teacher retention in high-turnover areas by developing a Workforce Distribution Dashboard to map teacher employment patterns and identify Teacher Exodus Zones in VIC, NSW, and QLD. It expects to generate new knowledge about successful retention practices through geo-spatial analysis and case studies of schools achieving high retention under challenging conditions. Expected outcomes include a scalable strategic framework for teacher retention, showcasing successful practices and providing actionable insights for policymakers and schools. This project will significantly benefit rural, remote, and disadvantaged communities by addressing workforce shortages and supporting sustainable, data-driven workforce planning..
