Government wants teachers to be able to do more planning at home to help with work-life balance.

Report by education charity Teach First calls for every teacher to be given a “flexibility’ entitlement, including short-term secondments away from school to work in other sectors.

Schools across England are already using their initiative to make the job more attractive.

A physics teacher at a school in Macclesfield completed a residency at Cern in Switzerland before returning to the classroom.

Department for Education said it is taking steps to support teachers’ wellbeing and ease workload pressures.

The Education Secretary has already begun a reset of the government’s relationship with the sector, with the intent to re-establish teaching as an attractive, expert and ultimately go-to profession.
