WQ.228/2019

WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE CHAIRMAN OF THE STATES EMPLOYMENT BOARD

BY DEPUTY C.S. ALVES OF ST. HELIER

ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 21st MAY 2019

Question

Given that, at the last meeting of the Assembly, the Chairman spoke of the current turnover in teaching staff in schools, will he publish, in terms of the number of teaching staff involved, the turnover of each school per year for the last 5 years; and will he also provide a breakdown of –

  1. how many such staff went on to work in other schools in Jersey;
  2. how many went on to work in schools off-Island; and
  3. how many went to work in a different sector?

Answer

The table shows the number of Teaching staff (i.e. those who come under the Teachers pay group, excludes Teaching Assistants and Heads & Deputies) by school type (Primary / Secondary) who have left their roles in schools in the past five academic years.

Our data does not include private schools.

Our systems are not configured to provide the information as specified in the question because either we do not collect the data or it would require significant manipulation of data which is not complete.

Therefore, the table below does not (for example) show where a teacher has left one school and gone to a different school, it will only show the departure of that teacher from the current post.

Looking at our current vacancy positions, as reported in the previous meeting of this Assembly, there are 19 vacancies of which 9 are in active recruitment as of today. As the annual movement of teachers results shows, there is no discernible variation that indicates an increasing trend of Turnover in this population.
