It is not a perfect comparison but it gives some benchmarks so we are not guessing about turnover.

"Of the 3,380,300 full-time and part-time public school teachers who were teaching during the 2007–08 school year, 84.5 percent remained at the same school (“stayers”), 7.6 percent moved to a different school (“movers”), and 8.0 percent left the profession (“leavers”) during the following year. [b]Among the 487,300 private school teachers who were teaching during the 2007–08 school year, [b]79.2 percent were stayers, 4.9 percent were movers, and 15.9 percent were leavers[/b].
[/b]
About 26.2 percent of public school teacher movers changed schools in 2008–09 because of personal life factors, compared to 16.0 percent of private school teacher movers. About 5.3 percent of public school teacher leavers left teaching in 2008–09 because their contract was not renewed, compared to 13.0 percent of private school teacher leavers.

Among teachers who left teaching in 2008–09, about 8.9 percent of public school teachers, compared to 17.4 percent of private school teachers, were working in an occupation outside the field of education, including military service."

WES is below the norm in transition of staff leaving, with 10 percent (not the total of 20+ percent that 'moved/left' school). [/quote]
