Key professional learning from the Chartered College of Teaching. Supports school leaders to build, cherish and develop diverse and inclusive staff teams.

School leaders are grappling with the challenges of recruiting and retaining teachers every day.
At a national level, this is about many factors including pay, workload and accountability. Within this context, how do school leaders face this challenge today, in their school, with their teaching staff?

School leaders are working to fill vacancies, support those new to the profession and enable staff members to progress - all while grappling with competing priorities and limited budgets. This book supports leaders with recruitment and retention in practice. Specifically, it helps leaders to address the barriers that people with protected characteristics might face in becoming teachers and progressing into leadership positions. The strategies offered in this book support improved teacher recruitment, job satisfaction and retention.
