Mid-career teachers represent more than half of those leaving our schools every year, and women aged 30-39 are consistently the largest demographic to go. Are the solutions quick and easy? … some of them, but the big shifts in working conditions that will improve the retention rate amongst mother-teachers will boost wellbeing, quality of teaching and learning, and retention across all demographics.
