Letter: In Brief

Sir: As the statistics are readily available it is surprising that the issue of teacher unemployment (report, 1 March) has not been highlighted before, so credit to The Independent. But, if the well-qualified can't find jobs, the Government's mantra "Welfare to Work" seems increasingly empty. As ever, it gives no answer to the question, where are the jobs?
