Dear teacher
The Russian school still has enough teachers. Still, the system is able to adapt: free hours are distributed among working teachers, the load is growing, part-time and other forms of employment are used. For this reason, the number of vacancies in itself is increasingly worse describing the state of the teaching corps. In the HSE analytical report, the share of free rates in 2016-2024 was estimated at 2.8-3.4%. If we consider the need for staff without teachers working part-time and civil law contracts, the figure increases to 7.4%. The first figure shows the ability of the school to provide the learning process, the second - the cost of such sustainability.
