The new education secretary says she is writing to education workforces as her 'first priority'.
The new education secretary has begun work to recruit 6,500 teachers, the Department for Education said.
And the government will immediately resume and expand the teacher recruitment campaign Every Lesson Shapes a Life, the DfE said. The party said it would fund the new posts by adding tax to private school fees - although it is unclear exactly when this will happen.. Some argue it is a reasonable way to raise revenue while others think it is an unfair charge that will fall on parents.Ms Phillipson said she wanted to put education "back at the forefront of national life" and "transform the image" of teaching.Ms Phillipson said writing to workforces on Monday was her "first priority".
"After the chaos of recent times, NEU members are hopeful that Bridget Phillipson will usher in a period of stability and seriousness at the Department for Education," he added.
