Therefore, though most employment opportunities contract in economic recessions, getting a teaching job in Vargonia's government-funded schools will not be made more difficult by a recession.
Which of the following would be most important to in order to evaluate the argument?
- A Whether in Vargonia there are any schools not funded by the government that offer children an education free of charge
- B Whether the number of qualified applicants for teaching positions in government-funded schools increases significantly during economic recessions
- C What the current student-teacher ratio in Vargonia's government-funded schools is
- D What proportion of Vargonia's workers currently hold jobs as teachers in government-funded schools
- E Whether in the past a number of government-funded schools in Vargonia have had student-teacher ratios well in excess of the new limit
