@PsyGuy Dave, I'm sorry to say that this smells like one of your fiats:
No they dont, its easy to say good ISs care about everything that someone else also cares about. They care far more about secondary and especially school leaving levels than they do ECE. Its expensive day care, and its hard finding good ITs in ECE because there isnt a demand for educating good ECE educators.
Where's your evidence? I know lots of really good schools, Davey, and they are all full up in their Early Years Programs. I meet with recruiters every year, and we all bemoan the lack of high quality Early Years teacher candidates. Doesn't matter to me if you teach IB fizz or Kindy 1 - the salary is the same where I work.
Have you thought of retraining, Dave? A job's a job...
