Why is there an ATCO shortage

Currently in the application process for ATCO and ended up thinking about job numbers (in an idle job prospect kind of way!)

So how many ATCOs are there in the UK approx do people think? 50? 100? 1000? 10,000?

seem to be 2 passouts from college every year and from what i can gather it seems to be around 40 people pass out every year. (is that correct?)

How many ATCOs retire every year?

are ATCO numbers increasing or decreasing? is there a shortage because there is more demand for ATCOs or because more people are leaving than joining?

How many ATCOs move to work abroad? is this common?
