An update from the MTPT Project
The MaternityTeacher PaternityTeacher Project (MTPT) provides empowering support to all parent-educators. They currently have two fully-funded opportunities open for bookings:
- Return to Work workshops
- Parental Leave group coaching programme
Both of these programmes are fully-funded for state school educators in the East of England, thanks to sponsorship from the Eastern Region Teaching School Hubs.
Return to Work workshops
Colleagues returning from a period of maternity, adoption or parental leave this term can enjoy a fully-funded place on one of the MTPT Project's Return to Work workshops. A Return to Work workshop is a highly supportive session aimed specifically at teachers, school leaders and support staff preparing to return to work following a period of maternity, adoption or shared parental leave.
During the 90-minute workshop participants will learn about their legal entitlements as returning parents and the best practice they can request from schools to support their return. The workshop offers the headspace to consider organisational logistics at home and at school, and prepare practically and emotionally for a confident return. These are baby-friendly events facilitated by Emma Sheppard, Founder of The MTPT Project.
