Description
Flexible working policies can help to recruit, retain and motivate teachers and can play a central role in helping schools to deploy their staff effectively and efficiently. However, there are a number of practical challenges to address (e.g. managing staffing arrangements, timetabling and developing coherent whole-school policies and approaches). In the 2019 Recruitment and Retention strategy we committed to support headteachers to adapt to changing demands by helping to transform approaches to flexible working in schools. As part of that commitment we are introducing Flexible Working Ambassador Schools (FWAS). FWAS will support schools to offer more flexible working opportunities, which in turn can improve retention rates.
