In a recent column for The Engineer Dr Hilary Leevers, CEO of industry body EngineeringUK calls on engineers to seriously consider a move to the classroom to help address a critical shortage of STEM teachers. In this week’s poll we’re asking a simple question: would you or wouldn’t you consider a move into classroom?
As always, as well as casting your vote, do please expand on your views in the comments box at the bottom of this page and let us know your thoughts on Dr Leevers’ proposal. Perhaps you have some ideas on how industry or government could incentivise engineers to make the jump into the classroom?
