OTSA Recruitment, Retention & Representation Conference 2024

Gain expert insights into the current teacher recruitment, retention and representation challenges in our schools

Schools continue to face multiple challenges and the recruitment and retention of skilled teachers is perhaps one of the most complex. Schools are reliant on great teachers and yet locally, nationally and globally they are in short supply. Furthermore, we are making very little progress in creating a teaching workforce that fully represents the society in which we live.

In response to these challenges new ways of thinking and a greater sense of collaboration and collective responsibility are required.

Drawing on a wider range of research and case studies, this conference will explore different facets of the challenges of recruitment, retention and representation and examine some of the ‘best bets’ that schools and MATs should make in order to respond effectively.

We are inviting trust leaders, headteachers, leadership team members and governors to join our first recruitment, retention and representation conference to explore the possibilities.

The conference will include keynote presentations, ‘spotlight’ insights on key facets of the recruitment, retention and representation challenges as well as input on innovative projects which attendees will be invited to participate in and shape.
