"Victorian Premier Dan Andrews has opened a new front in the national campaign
to attract and retain teachers. Amid ongoing teacher shortages, Victoria will
offer fee-free education for high school teaching degrees from next year.

This is similar to the free nursing degrees Victoria announced in 2022 to
create an “army of home-grown health workers”.

But is it going to fix the problem?"
