The government has announced the names of schools and trusts that will act as flexible working “ambassadors”.
But only three of the eight organisations that took part in a predecessor scheme are on the list for the flexible working ambassador multi-academy trusts and school programme.
The organisations will support other schools to improve flexible working policies as part of the government’s national programme to deliver a “culture change” in the sector.
Improving flexible working in schools is a key part of the DfE’s teacher recruitment and retention strategy.
