WomenEd is a global grassroots movement that connects aspiring and existing women leaders in education and gives women leaders a voice in education.
Even though women dominate the workforce across all sectors of education, there are still gender and racial inequalities in terms of the numbers of women in senior leadership, the large gender pay gap and the number of women who want to stay in education yet whose requests for flexible working are not met.
Our mission is for more women in education to have the choice to progress on their leadership journey.
To achieve this, WomenEd works to remove systemic and organisational barriers to such progress and to empower and enable women to achieve their next leadership step, if they choose to progress in leadership roles.
Any income received by WomenEd, including royalties from our books, is used solely to run this website and other communication channels. No individuals or organisations directly profit from WomenEd.
