Given the recruitment and retention crisis and the school funding crisis, is it really the best use of funds to be paying £26k for teachers to train in Classics (and then presumably sod straight off to the private sector)?
Although I doubt they're expecting many takers, it does seem to display completely messed up priorities.
I'm half wondering if Toby Young has said he needs more Latin teachers for his WLFS and the DfE has, as ever, pandered to his whims.

Should the DfE be offering £26k bursaries to train as a Classics teacher?
