The MTPT Handbook is a lifeline for both educators aspiring to combine their passion for teaching with becoming a parent, and the school leader who wants to empower them. It will provide you with the guidance and cheerleading that you need to fulfil your personal and professional aspirations.
At The MTPT Project we know that teaching can be a sustainable career choice for parents, and in this essential handbook, we show you how.

Supported by case studies celebrating the best that the family friendly schools and happy teachers in our community have to offer, this book is a lifeline for both educators aspiring to combine their passion for teaching with becoming a parent, and the school leader who wants to empower them. However you become a parent, or choose to grow your family and your career, this handbook will provide you with the guidance and cheerleading that you need to fulfil your personal and professional aspirations.

The book is divided into nine chapters, guiding readers from the first considerations of family planning, all the way through to the reality that some teachers and leaders may choose to leave classrooms for good. Each chapter includes:






the latest research on working families



legalities associated with different stages of working parenthood (including discrimination and how to avoid it as an employer and address it as an employee)



case studies from our community



suggestions for individuals and schools



recommended further reading.

Each chapter will help you to navigate the journey from planning a family, to stepping in and out of teaching to suit your parenting needs, to creating family friendly working environments, whatever your role in school. With its mixture of research-informed solutions, hints and tips, this text is perfect for colleagues embarking on their parenting journey and school leaders who want to take practical steps to retain and empower valued colleagues.

The MaternityTeacher/PaternityTeacher Project is the UK’s charity for parent-teachers, inspiring, empowering and connecting teachers choosing to complete professional development whilst on parental leave. Made up of coaches, regional representatives, advocates, volunteers and community members across the UK, The MTPT Project work to make teaching and educational leadership a sustainable, family-friendly career choice.
