I need two things to accept this as anything other than union propaganda designed to make teachers think they have it so hard and require the union to protect them from the big bad world.
1. A citation.
2. A comparison against all other university graduates.

I bet $25 dollars (if you want to accept) that teachers stay at their jobs at higher rates than those who graduate from other university programs. That is, if you're saying they have a higher attrition rate within the first five years, I need to know what jobs it is higher than.

I don't believe the statistic on an intuitive level, but I think since you're the one who brought it up you can be the one to defend it.

This one says 30%, https://www.cbc.ca/amp/1.7156002, how’s that? I also don’t need to prove it to you since you apparently have influence over Deans and Profs. If you think 30-2 math doesn’t close doors in uni you are dreaming and I won’t take the 25 dollar bet I don’t need to prove anything to you. However, what do I know after a decade of helping kids get into university in multiple countries throughout the world. So you do you but don’t cry or blame the teachers when that choice rears its head.
