disagree  Germaine: pour des raisons évidentes.// C'est vrai. Pardonnez-moi. J'oubliais que la syntaxe et vous, c'est pas évident. Reste à espérer que les conditions de travail, le salaire et le sexisme ne menacent pas trop fort; ça pourrait vous réveiller.

Reference information:
Over half of women teachers say they feel generally or very pessimistic about their future in the teaching profession, a women's conference organised by the NASUWT, the largest teachers’ union in the UK, has heard.

Gender inequality, combined with crushing workloads and attacks on their pay and working conditions, are threatening to drive women out of the profession.

Hundreds of women teachers from across the country gathered in Birmingham today for the NASUWT’s annual Women Teachers’ Consultation Conference to discuss the challenges they face and to attend a series of professional development workshops.

@ asker - I removed my answer because it was wrong. As Ormiston pointed out "drive out of" implies that this is about female teachers who are now active in education, not students who might be driven away from the profession.
