In this introductory episode of 'The Teacher Pay Mess,' Amanda and her co-host, both seasoned educators, delve into the convoluted and problematic structure of teacher pay. They discuss the historical roots of the pay system, which originated in the 18th century, and how it was designed based on sexist assumptions. They also elucidate 'step and column,' the mechanism dictating teacher salaries which they argue is archaic and oppressive. Additionally, they touch upon themes of structural sexism, lack of racial diversity, and income inequality affecting the teaching profession. The conversation broadens to include the inadequacies in per pupil spending in states like California, and how these financial shortcomings contribute to the ongoing teacher shortage crisis. The episode is a call to action for teachers and listeners to challenge the status quo and advocate for systemic changes in the education sector.
