> Paying CS teachers more than PE or English teachers is not politically viable as teachers and their unions wouldn't accept it,

It looks like you have already identified your problem. You could give CS teachers double appointments with the IT department if you have absolutely no wiggling space on money/conditions. Or maybe you could gather some programmers who are eager to reach out to kids and let them work part-time as teachers after they obtain the necessary qualifications.
