The teaching profession seems to be the least favourite among young people entering tertiary level. Pamela Mabengwana Mtotywa works as the assistant manager for the faculty of education at University of Fort Hare in East London. She says that she does not understand why so many applicants come to apply for teaching as their last option: “It is an important job, it is where everything starts.” “Applicants usually come when they have been rejected by other departments.” She also said that teachers in the country leave to work abroad because the government does not pay teachers enough. “An increase in the teachers’ salaries would be the only way to motivate young people to take teaching as a field they want to study for,” she said. A report by the South African Council for Educators (SACE) says that according to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) 2004, since 1990 there has been a marked increase in the international migration of highly-skilled people in three sectors, one of them being the teaching sector. High school learners gave their reasons for disliking the profession and not considering it as a field to study at University. Twenty-year-old Sifiso Tyomfi and 21-year-old Siphe Songoni who are both in grade 12 at the Centre of Excellence in East London said teachers teach a lot of children who come from different backgrounds along with different issues and as a teacher you have to deal with that stress.
