The new schools menopause policy provides a framework to equip, support, encourage and enable conversations between employees and managers.
We aim to improve understanding and discussion around the menopause in schools, and to develop a fair, transparent, and consistent approach to support colleagues during this phase of life.
Without workplace support, symptoms can lead to loss of confidence, decreased productivity, taking time off work, less job satisfaction and staff may make the difficult decision to leave the workforce.
The menopause affects everyone, including transgender and non-binary employees, whether directly or indirectly. By implementing a written menopause policy at your school, you can help to create an inclusive workplace, enabling staff to be supported at work, retaining valuable knowledge, skills, and experience.
