There is a welcome bonus of 5,000 Euros for new Dutch or English teachers. Schools are increasingly offering high premiums to attract teachers, reports De Telegraaf. A school in Katwijk might even offer 10,000 Euros for a maths teacher.

According to the job site Meesterbaan, maths teachers are most wanted.Head-hunters and agencies dig for CVs of mathematics teachers by sifting through on sites like LinkedIn, and they send unsolicited e-mails in which they offer jobs. The need is very high in some cases.

Mathematics Teacher

Andreas College in Katwijk offers 10,000 Euros to a grade one mathematics teacher, according to DeTelegraaf. The Dutch Association of Mathematics Teachers agrees that a working group should be set up. The chairman of the association for the newspaper said: “Yet another huge offerof money does not help,the shortage of specialist teachers remains”.

In education there are an unprecedented number of vacanciesat this moment. On the site Meesterbaan there are thousands more jobs to find than a year ago. The deficiencies in primary education are the greatest. But also first degree teachers are in demand. There is particular demand for teachers of mathematics, Dutch, English and physics.
