Abstract
This article examines the challenges facing the teaching profession in Australia and proposes solutions to address issues of teacher retention, administrative workload and career progression. Providing autonomy to teachers and developing a clear career progression plan can help retain experienced teachers, and reducing administrative tasks and promoting collaboration can enhance teacher satisfaction and effectiveness. New roles for experienced teachers should be explored. These include instructional specialist roles that would provide teachers with opportunities for career progression and collaboration. Implementing such programmes would need to be justified to policymakers or even taxpayers, as they could involve potential financial costs. A comprehensive approach is necessary to ensure that teaching remains an attractive and rewarding profession in Australia for the country’s better prospects.
