School standards minister Estelle Morris has announced a £130m package of measures to boost the recruitment of secondary teachers. This includes a £5,000 incentive for students training for a Post Graduate Certificate of Education who go on to teach maths or science. The £5,000 `golden hellos' were welcomed by the National Association of Head Teachers, which also warned that more needed to be done.`Nothing short of a radical overhaul of the current pay structure will solve the dire recruitment position overhanging secondary teacher recruitment,' said NAHT general secretary David Hart.
