Good idea, wont work though.
Some estimates say there's over 10,000 incompitant teachers around, I don't think that we'll magically get another 10,000 trained compitant teachers as soon as this comes in so the heads will think "well a shit teacher is better than no teacher"

How do you define incompetent though?
I know a bloke who was regarded as an excellent English teacher, but got so ground down by being consistently given the lowest sets to teach that he eventually jacked it in as he felt that he wasn't achieving what he could because the classes just weren't interested in learning anything. He was basically a highly paid babysitter.

Nope, he was highly respected in the school.
They figured his experience would rub off on the scrotes, and while some did benefit and get halfway decent results, too many of the kids were just not interested.

Most kids these days expect the schools to do their work for them
Sadly, many actually do to keep up GCSE pass rates
