Whether you’re in a school, college or university, about 1 in 6 of your colleagues are likely to be experiencing perimenopause or menopause right now.

But despite these numbers there is still stigma around talking about the menopause, and a lack of understanding of the challenges faced by education staff going through it.

It’s time to start the conversation and get talking about menopause. Our amazing speakers are here to help!

Our panel of educators and menopause experts address:

  • what the menopause and perimenopause are and how they can affect education staff in different ways

  • how to start healthy and open conversations at work about the menopause

  • how to create a menopause safe and stigma-free culture at school, with real-life practical examples

  • support and signposting for education staff who are struggling with the menopause/perimenopause

  • how supporting those experiencing menopause/perimenopause will help you retain staff and ensure they are well enough to do their jobs effectively.

Here are our fantastic panellists:

  • Helen Clare, Menopause educator and mentor
  • Jules Daulby, Assistant headteacher
