WomenEd Campaign Spotlight: Representation of Women Leaders in Education The Numbers Don't Lie 📊 Despite women making up the majority of the education workforce (77%), they're significantly underrepresented in senior leadership roles, particularly Principals (61%). 🧵 1/4

WomenEd Campaign Spotlight: Diversity of Women Leaders in Education At #WomenEd NI, we envision an education system reflecting our diverse pupils. While Northern Ireland's schools are becoming increasingly multicultural, our teaching staff doesn't yet mirror this rich diversity. 🧵 1/4

#WomenEd Campaign: Flexible Working in Education This isn't just a perk - it’s essential for many women with disabilities or caregiving responsibilities. EU research highlights that parenthood disproportionately impacts mothers in the labor market due to unequal caregiving burdens (GEI, 2019). 🧵 1/3

Fantastic achievement and recognition for a powerful project on the #DreamGap. Congratulations, Sandra! 👏 #WomenEd
