"It is a general finding of the Panel that the interplay between the contextual variables, myriad government policies and initiatives, and increased responsibilities since 2003/04, is of a scale and intensity that dwarfs the findings in each of the assessments found in the 1970, 1980/81, 1990/91 and 2003/04 work cases and in the Vinson report." -- Executive summary. References several other reports about Teacher Attrition, Teacher Retention, and number of teachers leaving the profession.
